Stepping out of her shell: Toni Babao takes cosplay to the next level with COSPLANET PH (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For someone who describes herself as an introvert, Toni Babao is certainly stepping far out into the limelight. It’s a different one than what her parents are in though. This time, she is not simply putting on a costume and stepping into the shoes of a beloved character. She is stepping into the world of event production, bringing together cosplayers, animé and fantasy fans, artists, collectors, creators and families for what she hopes will become a meaningful and memorable gathering for the com
‘Resident Evil’: Horror worth putting your phone down for (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One of the toughest things to do these days is probably not surviving a zombie apocalypse but actually putting your phone down and leaving it there for a couple of hours, especially when your work and practically your entire daily routine revolve around being connected. We have become so used to checking a notification in the middle of a conversation, opening an app while watching TV or instinctively reaching for our phones whenever there is even the slightest lull, which is why I found Zach Cre
James Reid finally finds his rhythm (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There’s something different about James Reid these days. Maybe it’s the way he talks about music. It’s the ease with which he moves from one creative project to another.

You can move out of a network. You can go to another show. You can reinvent yourself, start a new chapter, meet an entirely different generation of artists. And then, one random day, you find yourself standing in the same room with the same people you thought you had moved on from. And before you know it, you’re back where you started. That was the scene during rehearsals for “Vibe+”’s freshest all-Original Pilipino Music (OPM) countdown, when Concert King Martin Nievera came face-to-face with o
In the age of AI, Jon Favreau, Mike Gunton remind us what real looks like (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There was something almost poetic about interviewing Disney Legend Jon Favreau about “LION.” Here is a man who has spent much of his career convincing us to believe in things that technically do not exist — “Iron Man,” “The Mandalorian” and the live-action “The Lion King.” Characters and creatures brought to life through technology, visual effects, animation and an extraordinary amount of imagination. And now, Jon wants us to look at something that does not need to be created by man at all — a r
