My Grand Escape!

Just a few days ago my niece asked me, how do I escape from life’s shit?! (well she didn't actually used the word shit*) I just told her that creating this magazine is a form of my escape. For me, expressing my creative ideas and watching them come to life is my greatest escape.

But why do we need to escape?

What are the reasons that normally force us to find a way to escape? In life, when everything becomes routinary, sometimes it’s good to interrupt a specific rythm of life. It can be a welcome intermission from a mad schedule and life’s humdrum, but sometimes being in transition is when interesting things happen. On the process of creating this magazine, I have learned a lot and have also met alot of interesting people.

I’m very excited because for the first time GP Magazine managed to gather some of the biggest and meanest villainess in our tv, movie and theater industry! God I love my job! Working on this issue skyrocketed me to direct a fashion shoot that consist all the Contrabidas I adore in the industry! Just imagine in one room with the great Celia Rodriquez, Jean Garcia, Pinky Amador, Mylene Dizon, Gladys Reyes and ofcourse my favorite..Cherie Gil! It was my hardest shoot to date! but what the heck! it's still a dream come true.

Making our two other fashion spreads that illustrates contemporary escape adventures revolving around debauchery and fantasy is also a challenge not just for me but also for the entire team. But again we managed to pull it all together! The ultimate offering in this issue that will tease the hell out of ur imagination is Victor Basa (Yum!).


Creating the new escape issue of GP Magazine somehow provided me my own escape pod from my usual clubbing, dramas and pops! I hope this new issue will provide an interesting escape at the comforts of your own space. Sometimes, fiction is a more pleasurable realm than reality itself.
