Hi,

I make period drama style gifs for free. If you use gif packs, please like and reblog them. Most of my projects are already ready, but every day I post no more than 190 gifs. Because that was the reason why my previous account was blocked.

I tried to make gif packs in a format more familiar to you with a link to a separate page. However, unfortunately, I did not succeed because of the large format of high-quality gifs.

I want to explain about color processing. Usually, I improve the contrast, brightness and saturation, but leave the naturalness of the film. I don't make the contours too sharp because I like the aesthetic of it looking like a natural image.

ABS-CBN's Franchise Death rings the death knell of Press Freedom?

Ne Alawas Cadiog

JULY 10, 2020 marked the beginning of the death knell of Press Freedom after the House of Representatives tolls the ABS-CBN's franchise application to a dire conclusion. Voting with 70 yes, 11 no, 1 abstain, and 2 inhibits, the House of Representatives denies franchise renewal of the Kapamilya network.

Photo courtesy: PhilStar.com

Photo shows the ABS-CBN compound in Quezon City on May 05, 2020 after the National Telecommunications Commission ordered its shutdown.

The network, which is the largest media conglomerate in the country, faced the threat of a network shut down due to its expired franchise on March 30, 2020.

This was when Solicitor General Jose Calida also filed a Quo Warranto petition in the Supreme Court against ABS-CBN claiming that the corporation is partly-owned by foreigners. ABS-CBN rebutted this claim saying that Philippine Depositary Receipts or PDRs do not refer to ownership, but rather, investments to sustain the corporation's growth.

After ABS-CBN being killed off-air, over 10,000 employees lose their jobs, and subsequent consequences may be feared. With the renewal of their franchise being blocked, organizations and journalists see this as proof of the vindicativeness of the government.

What are the violations of the network as stated in the argument debated over during the span of 12 hearings?

•Critics had accused ABS-CBN of illegal foreign ownership.

➡ Justice Undersecretary Emelline Aglipay-Villar testified in the hearings that ABS-CBN Corporation chairman emeritus Eugenio "Gabby" Lopez III is a Filipino because his parents are Philippine citizens, said Zarate.

DOJ: ABS-CBN's Gabby Lopez Filipino citizen from birth. Lopez earlier told congressmen that he was also a dual American citizen because he was born in the US.

"There’s no distinction made between pure Filipino and dual citizens" when it comes to participation in mass media, said Bayan Muna Party List Representative Carlos Zarate, quoting Justice Assistant Secretary Nicholas Ty.

The Securities and Exchange Commission also testified that "a dual citizen is 100 percent Filipino," Zarate added. SEC agrees, dual citizens are '100 percent Filipino'

• Accusation on the Foreign Ownership

➡SEC Commissioner Ephyro Luis Amatong, noted by Zarate, stated that ABS-CBN's Philippine Depositary Receipts "do not reflect transfer of ownership to foreigners."

PDRs allow foreigners to invest without violating PH laws, says Monsod ABS-CBN PDRs 'compliant' with law.

• On Tax Violation

➡Contrary to allegations of tax irregularities, the Bureau of Internal Revenue testified that the network regularly settled taxes and is one of the country's top taxpayers. In addition, Philippine Economic Zone Authority officials also said the broadcaster has no tax shield. BIR says ABS-CBN has no tax deliquency

•On allegations of election coverage bias

➡The Commission on Elections said the network did not violate any poll law. No complaints vs ABS-CBN on election bias.

ABS-CBN news chief Ging Reyes said that Journalism a 'public service'.

•Violation of Worker's Rights

➡Quoting the labor department, Zarate said that it was typical for any big company to face labor cases and that ABS-CBN complied with standards.

DOLE exec stated that ABS-CBN 'fully compliant' with labor standards.

Before the votation of the House of Representatives happened, the Technical Working Group (TWG) of the Committee on Legislative Franchises after their findings and recommendation which was contained in their 40 pages TWG report, recommends to deny new franchise for ABS-CBN. Consequently, 70 representatives vote "yes" to the denial of their franchise, while 11 representatives stand in favor of ABS-CBN franchise renewal; 2 inhibit, and 1 abstain.

The Battle for Press Freedom

Photo courtesy: Time Magazine

When Covid-19 hits the Philippines, the economy went down. The struggle for life, food to survive and the freedom to know has been crucial. News provides necessary information that we need to be able to understand the virus, to know what are the do's and dont's. But the government deprived this country the freedom to know when they chooses to imprisoned Miss Maria Resa and denying ABS-CBN to renew their franchise amid the Covid-19. "This is a big blow against press freedom in our country and deprived millions of Filipinos of new, entertainment and assistance!" Rodriguez said in a Viber message. (Cepeda, 2020)

There's no exact law that protect and uphold press freedom in the Philippines but there's the 1987 CONSTITUTION OF THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES – ARTICLE III. The Bill on Rights Section five says "No law shall be passed abridging the freedom of speech, of expression, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances."

This is the reason why the Philippines is the fifth deadliest country for journalist (Salaverria, 2019) because it's not directed to protect the life and right of every journalist to press freedom disintegrating the media.

President Rodrigo Duterte has personally vowed to put the channel and its subsidiaries out of business, even telling its executives to just sell the company. He earlier also publicly spoke about his ire against ABS-CBN for not airing his political ads during the May 2016 elections, where he eventually won. However, Calida insisted that the case is not motivated by politics. (CNN, 2020)

Last May 4 the franchise of ABS-CBN has expired and the government denies for renewal because of the "network’s alleged violations of its franchise, the Constitution, labor and tax laws, and biased reporting and meddling in politics." (Dela Cruz, 2020) "The National Telecommunications Commission has since ordered it to cease its television and radio operations and to stop broadcasting its TV Plus and Sky Direct channels." (Cepeda, 2020)

When the dual citizenship of ABS-CBN chairman emeritus Eugenio “Gabby” Lopez III was questioned, the Department of Justice confirmed he is both Filipino and American. Bureau of Internal Revenue officials also repeatedly told lawmakers that ABS-CBN had been paying the proper taxes in the past two decades. (Cepeda, 2020)

Even the defenders of ABS-CBN in the House of Representative insisted the network deserve a new franchise because the government officials cleared them of any wrong doing. Which is ironic because the government agencies contradicts the allegations of lawmakers.

The hearing ended with 70 votes denying the network for franchise renewal and 11 in favor, two inhibited and one abstained.

THE LONG FIGHT FOR FRANCHISE OF ABS-CBN: DENIED

Lyka E. Manalo

Amidst of the Covid-19 pandemic, Philippine TV Network ABS CBN was being shut down by the Government and other organizations related. In this kind of situation, Filipino people needs more information about the update and status of the unseen foe, covid-19. Does, the Government needs to focus more on important matters related to current pandemic than tackling in the shutdown of the TV network.

This year 2020, this is the second time that ABS-CBN has been ordered to shutdown again, May 05, 2020 it went off-air and also the DZMM and MOR. It’s quite dismayed some people, because now that we have been battling with the unseen enemy, Mass media really plays an important role. And considering the fact that ABS-CBN network is one of the most in demand TV network.

The decisions of the House committee handed their decisions lon July 10, 2020 on the fate of ABS-CBN whether their franchise will be approved or denied. And the decision was denied and not able to grant their franchise.

The following are the several issues or concerns that leads to the denial of the franchise of the ABS-CBN network.

📌Lopez’s dual citizenship

Lopez is a dual citizenship, both a natural-born Filipino and an American citizen. Philippines have constitutional provision stating that “dual allegiance of citizens is inimical to the national and shall be dealt with by law”. Mass media also must be 100% owned and managed by Filipinos.

📌Issuance of PDRs

-Philippine depositary receipts to foreigners allowed foreign ownership in ABS-CBN, which could have violated the 1987 Constitution.

📌ABS-CBN TV Plus Box, KBO pay-per-view

-According to NTC, there is no authorization from them on record allowing ABS-CBN to produce the TV Plus Box containing multiple channels, much less to sell it for profit.

📌Failure to regulize Employees

-The TWG report cited the Department of labor and Employment’s official statement on July 1 declaring that it’s labor standards by ABS-CBN and there are 67 pending cases against the company in the national Labor Relations Commissions (NLCR) and various courts.

📌Tax Issues

-ABS-CBN claimed it’s paying proper taxes, which is allegedly provem by the Tax Clearance is issued by the Bureau of International Revenue. They also maintained that it did not violate the terms and conditions of it’s legislative franchise by availing of tax incentives offered by the government. However, the panel said a tax clearance does not absolve a taxpayer of tax liabilities and delinquencies, nor from acts of fraud or tax evasion.

📌Biased Reporting and Meddling in Politics

25 Instantáneas de Eve Gil o Niebla matinal sobre una montaña sin nombre/ Héctor Alvarado Díaz

1. ¿Formas parte de alguna Hermandad?

Bueno…en la puerta de nuestro departamento, mi hija mayor pegó una calcomanía que dice “Este es un hogar otaku, no se acepta propaganda de otras religiones”. Otakus, para los que no lo sepan, son personas aficionadas a todo lo que huela a japonés, muy particularmente los mangas y animes, y lo que de ello se derive. Esa podría ser una forma de hermandad, creo. El feminismo también…a veces.

2. ¿Despiertas con una historia en la cabeza?

Mi imaginación funciona como una lavadora, no para de girar y arrastrar consigo varias ideas. Cuando brota una que me resulta especialmente atractiva, procuro anotarla inmediatamente, antes de que las que vengan atrás la aplasten.

3. ¿Empiezas un libro antes de terminar otro?

He de reconocer que sí. El único escritor que me ha dicho que trabajaba en varios proyectos a la vez, fue Federico Campbell. Cuando yo he mencionado ante colegas que trabajo en dos o tres libros totalmente distintos entre sí, me miran con perplejidad y afirman que eso no puede ser. Pero no le veo nada de raro a que, por ejemplo, mientras escribes un libro, empieces a abrirle paso a otro u otros.

4. ¿Trabajas bien cuando el tiempo apremia?

Definitivamente no. Si me ponen una fecha para entregar algo, empiezo a trabajar en el primer minuto del convenio para evitarme apuros. Mi frase de cabecera es “Las cosas se hacen bien, o no se hacen”, y soy incapaz de trabajar bajo presión. Por eso me retiré del periodismo.

5. ¿Te has vestido de geisha?

Nunca…bueno, casi, pero quedó fatal porque el maquillaje se me escurrió. No fue precisamente de geisha, sino un cosplay con un look similar al de una geisha.

6. ¿Hay algo que te obsesione?

Me obsesiona todo, y eso me hace sufrir mucho. Ni siquiera sabría por dónde empezar…el trabajo, naturalmente. Mis hijas, aunque a estas alturas es poco lo que puedo hacer por ellas, tengo rachas de fustigación maternal. Me preocupa mucho mi país, la política. Me anticipo a las cosas por culpa de mi imaginación que es un monstruo voraz, más allá de la literatura, y por lo general siempre veo el peor escenario posible para todo, incluso para lo que deseo que marche muy bien.

7. Cinco escritor@s fundamentales en tu biblioteca.

Cinco son muy poquitxs, jejeje…pero en fin: Haruki Murakami, Murasaki Shikibu, Yukio Mishima, Angela Carter y Flannery O’ Connor.

8. ¿Eres visual, táctil, auditiva?

Dicen que las mujeres somos más auditivas, pero en mi caso soy muy, muy visual. Por eso amo el cine tanto como a la literatura y puedo pasar horas mirando fotografías.

9. ¿Te has hartado del mundo?

Querido: estoy harta del mundo. Por eso soy escritora.

10. ¿Tienes sentido del humor?

De entre mis múltiples defectos y escasas cualidades, yo diría que mi virtud número dos (porque la uno es mi capacidad de trabajo) es el sentido del humor. Soy una “standupera” de la vida, perdón por el neologismo. Pero esa capacidad de reírte de todo y de todos, incluido de ti mismo, provoca muchas broncas. Yo escribí una stand up comedy autobiográfica para que una actriz la dramatizara durante un coloquio titulado Machismo y literatura, efectuado en Hermosillo, mi tierra, en el 2017…y desde entonces estoy recibiendo amenazas de muerte, insultos y golpetazos en las redes sociales. Es totalmente en serio, se puede corroborar. Pero lo volvería a hacer, y me encantaría actuarlo yo misma.

11. ¿Le das muchas vueltas antes de tomar una decisión?

Soy virgo. Creo mucho en la astrología (uno de mis múltiples defectos), y es cierto que los nativos de ese signo le damos muchas vueltas al asunto, lo ponemos todo al derecho y al revés antes de decidirnos. Y una vez tomada la decisión, ya no nos echamos para atrás.

12. ¿Cómo corriges?

Imagínate, con lo obsesiva que soy…hace algunos años alguien me contó que José Emilio Pacheco corregía sus libros cuando los reeditaban…pues yo hago lo mismo. Ya publicados, tras haberles dedicado meses enteros a pulirlos, me doy de topes contra la pared. Y por más que me impongo no releer el material ya publicado por salud mental, tarde o temprano vuelvo a caer.

13. ¿Cantas chido?

Acá entre nos: canto bien, y no nada más en la ducha. Entre los diecisiete y veinte años fui vocalista de un grupo heavy metal de puras morras, éramos cinco, nos llamábamos “Doncellas de metal”, aunque en la escuela constantemente me pedían que cantara como Cyndi Lauper, porque me salía igualito. Cuando mi hija mayor era pequeña, me pedía que le cantara “Like a virgin” con las voces de Madonna, Brittney Spears y Christina Aguilera…pero, mis respetos para Christina: mi voz es demasiado delgada. Soy soprano.

14. ¿Actuarías en una película?

¡Claro!, de hecho, debuté en la versión cinematográfica de Sho shan y la dama oscura, bajo la dirección de Carlos Preciado Cid, haciendo el peor cosplay de mi vida (para el que me pintaron medio geisha, precisamente, Yuuko Ichihara). Pero estudié actuación con Ángel Norzagaray cuando estaba en la universidad.

15. Música favorita.

La música me fascina. Mis playlists de spotify son de lo más eclécticas que te puedas imaginar. Siento un afecto muy especial por la música de los ochentas, más incluso que por la de los noventa, que en teoría tendría que ser la mía, pero a los 9 años ya andaba comprando discos de Donna Summer y Village People. También me gusta mucho la música actual, aunque no podría ser tan fan de los Imagine Dragons como en su momento lo fui de Durán Durán.

16. ¿Se te ha quitado lo norteña?

Ni un poquito.

17. ¿Eres una chica mala de la literatura?

Según algunos, soy como la canción esa de Astrid Hadaad (para que veas que me gusta todo tipo de música), pero la realidad es que soy una buena persona. Qué no diera yo por ser como las autoras que abordo en mi libro Evaporadas, haber tenido experiencias salvajes como Kathy Acker o haber asaltado OXXOS como Albertine Sarrazine…o haber tenido muchos amantes y protectores como Jean Rhys… pero nada de eso se me dio, tuve que conformarme con inventar personajes que se atrevieran a hacer lo que yo no.

18. ¿Qué te pone de buenas?

Contestar este cuestionario me ha puesto muy de buenas. También un buen libro o una buena película, porque no espero nada del mundo exterior.

19. ¿Participas en la vida cultural?

No mucho, es decir, no presencialmente. Cuando un amigo o amiga muy queridos me piden que les presente un libro, soy incapaz de negarme y procuro que no se arrepientan de haberme concedido ese honor…pero en el fondo, Bartleby dixit, “preferiría no hacerlo”.

20. ¿Te has sentido censurada?

¡Uy! Si alguien escribiera mi biografía o una novela sobre mi vida, el título no podía ser otro que Censuradíssima. Lo he sido tanto, pero tanto, que si entro en detalles terminaría escribiendo yo misma esa novela. Por lo pronto ya te di un ejemplo: mi stand comedy fue removida de YouTube por los “ofendidos”, y ni siquiera me sorprendió.

21. ¿La crítica es una labor ingrata o satisfactoria?

Por lo que a mí respecta, muy satisfactoria. No sé por qué la mayoría de los críticos mexicanos creen firmemente que tienen que resultar odiosos y hasta crueles para ser objetivos, y que el que los escritores los odien es síntoma de que hacen bien su trabajo. Para empezar, yo no perdería mi tiempo haciendo crítica de libros que no me gustan. Lo hice una sola vez en mi vida porque era un libro en extremo insultante para la comunidad literaria de México, ¿y qué crees?, es la más célebre de mis reseñas. Qué mala onda.

22. ¿Cómo comenzaste?

Esta anécdota se le heredé a la heroína de mi novela Réquiem por una muñeca rota. Cuando ingresé a la secundaria yo quería hacer cómics, de hecho los hacía, dibujaba muy bonito. Pero pusieron en mis manos un libro de Oscar Wilde y me incluyeron en una lectura coral en voz alta, de El ruiseñor y la rosa. A mí me tocaba leer la penúltima estrofa y cuando llegó mi turno, no podía hablar: estaba ahogada en lágrimas. Supe ese día que quería ser como Oscar Wilde. Tenía 12 años. A los 13 concreté mi primera novela que se titulaba “Lección de amor”.

23. ¿Relees mucho?

Sí, y me encanta hacerlo porque nunca es el mismo libro de la vez anterior. A veces resulta que no era tan bueno como recordaba, pero otras… ¡qué maravilla!

24. ¿Conoces Japón?

No físicamente. Lo conozco a través de su literatura, su cultura…y Google Earth. Pero si se me apareciera un genio no le pediría ninguna de las chorradas que suelen pedírsele a los genios…yo le pediría unas vacaciones en Japón y muchos yenes para gastar.

25. ¿Es preferible no conocer a tus escritores favoritos?

A veces. Yo soy ultra fan de un autor mexicano (me reservo su nombre porque está vivo y no quiero que parezca que le estoy haciendo la barba) y me llevé una tremenda decepción al conocerlo porque creo que estaba de malas, o no sé, y casi me hizo llorar. El caso es que no le perdí el gusto a su literatura y actualmente la llevo bien con él.

An abuse of press freedom or a law we need to follow?

Kate Hernando

There are big questions rose after the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) issued a cease-and-desist order demanding ABS-CBN Corp. immediately cease all broadcasting. It is an order that dictates any form of broadcasting made by the network will be recognized as illegal or suspicious.

Is it an abuse to press freedom? Or just a law we need to follow? Does history repeating itself?

Prior to the 2020 shutdown of ABS-CBN it also happened way back the 23rd of September year 1972 when Former President Ferdinand E. Marcos declared “Martial Law” which forcefully closed different radio and television stations including newspapers except others who’s in favor of the President which excludes the stated network (ABS-CBN).

After receiving the cease-and-desist order given by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC), ABS-CBN released a statement which gave importance on providing crucial and timely data for the people amidst the pandemic happening in the world. House Speaker Alan Peter Cayetano gave an assurance to the network that there would be no move to shutdown it. Regardless of the situation, the network still made ways to provide information to the public which clearly their right.

After the expiration of franchise in May, the network had been forced to off air. July 10, 2020 is the second time that ABS-CBN had been shut down by the government. This issue really contradicted the freedom of the press as accorded in Constitution Section 4, Article III of the Constitution provides that “No law shall be passed abridging the freedom of speech, of expression, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances.”

A big number of Journalist and Human Rights groups pummels the dismissal of ABS-CBN having numerous lives influence by it being shut down. It maybe a “grievous attack on press freedom”, the Human Rights Watch (HRW) expressed also stating that this event demonstrates that we are beneath a de facto military law (Martial Law) that abuses human rights most especially the freedom of the press. They believe that the shut down of the network would affect many lives of Filipinos most especially the ones who lives in far and isolated areas that depends on ABS CBN radio and television stations. This will not just deprive the people’s freedom of the press but also their right to information and entertainment.
