Films are an integral part of our society in the way that we live and view life. They are more than just entertainment; they are also tools for education that can communicate important social issues and drive social change. But not everyone can afford to watch movies, and the independent films—which are generally much less expensive—aren’t exactly accessible, either. On top of that, the pandemic makes it even harder for these films to reach more audience. Inflation rates are increasing and more and more people are choosing to stay home, while the films are left to dust, never to be seen again.
This is where EdukSine comes in.
EdukSine Production Corporation, founded by Karen Salutan, Romae Chanice Marquez and Hector Gloria, is a livelihood that solves this problem by creating a streaming platform for independent filmmakers and producers, where they can have their films streamed from their audience’s devices any time. With EdukSine, independent Filipino films are made affordable and accessible to all Filipinos. Through their block screenings, whether it’s virtual, live, or both, more Filipinos are able to view these films. Not only it allows indie filmmakers to continue making a living out of filmmaking, it also provides education to those who can’t afford it.
Let’s support and preserve the Filipino culture through independent films with EdukSine. Catch them in the Philippine Start-Up week on Nov.18, 2022 at 4 PM as they tackle their humble beginnings and how they help independent filmmakers through their platform and how they make independent Filipino films accessible and affordable, not just to all Filipinos but also to the world. Please also support the event “Women as Builders by IDEYA, Miriam College-TBI and UPGRADE TBI” featuring Ms. Karen Jane Sautan, CEO and Founder of EdukSine and other women entrepreneur first batch of grantees of DOST’s Women-Helping-Women Innovating Social Enterprises (WHWise) November 14 at 1 PM.
