Platinum Karaoke introduces its “BIRIT” Ambassadors

Platinum Karaoke, makers of high quality and high definition karaoke machines and accessories perfect for every home, recently launched its two new exciting products MAJOR HD10 and BRAVO together with the introduction of two very talented “BIRIT” ambassadors at a fun and lively event recently held at the Luxent Hotel in Quezon City.

An amazing brand that is sure to bring about fun and enjoyment just like how the event turned out, Platinum Karaoke offers thousands of songs, high-definition video and images, very affordable and up-to-date upgrade, and excellent sound quality. 

Introduced during the affair were the two new Platinum Karaoke models. The first is the HD Wireless Bravo which boasts of excellent high-definition sound, quarterly song updates, multimedia playback, multiple HD video backgrounds and is highlighted by over 6,600 OPM and English Songs, among others. Bravo also has a remarkable portability feature as it comes with its own carrying case that can be taken wherever, whenever. It has high-resolution image and background videos of nature, international MTVs and clips as well as animated 3D characters.

The MAJOR HD-10 Karaoke, on the other hand, is not just a karaoke system but a full entertainment package in itself. MAJOR is equipped with high-end specifications which include dual core processor, 1 TB Hard Disk Drive storage, creating a reliable and very powerful karaoke player. MAJOR prides itself with innovative multimedia functions that enable the user to play, store, edit and copy any media files in the karaoke player acting as a media console at the same time. 

Platinum Karaoke also has its own advanced recording studio to program all songs as close to the original. Every high-end and mid-level unit is programmed with live-recorded background vocals and the Training Song Technology, which is an automatic function wherein pre-recorded vocals are played to guide the user on the right vocals and tone to hit as the song plays. The brand is likewise definitely all about fun and happiness and the chosen ambassadors are indeed the epitome of both -- Vice Ganda and Angeline Quinto.

As Platinum Karaoke aims to provide millions of Filipinos locally and all over the world high definition music and entertainment, the brand has chosen Vice Ganda, being a versatile and total performer with comedic 

nature, and a trendy recording artist. Vice Ganda indeed well-represents the unique features and benefits of Platinum Karaoke - high definition at ‘Bonggang’ sound.

He quipped with delight, ‘I am very happy to be chosen as one of the brand ambassadors of Platinum Karaoke for many reasons. First, I believe in the product as I personally have one, and actually use it at every fun get-together at home with family and friends.’ 

Vice Ganda happily added, ‘To my amazement, their song list is more updated than the Karaoke bars and with sound so superb that even my non-singing friends suddenly sounding like pros! Secondly, karaoke-singing is very close to what I truly love doing which are SINGING and having FUN! But more importantly, I am sharing this delightful endorsement with someone that is almost a sister to me, my good friend Angeline Quinto!’  

As a champion singer, Angeline Quinto is Platinum's confident choice to embody its high-definition features. Aside from having one of the most beautiful voices in the country, she is also a talented actress. She continuously strives to be better in her craft, just like how Platinum innovates and releases new models that will fit the needs and lifestyle of Filipinos.

Angeline shared with the audience, “It's a privilege for me to be chosen as one of the brand ambassadors for Platinum Karaoke because even before I entered the industry, talagang kumakanta na ako using the karaoke. Dati kailangan ko pa magbayad para makakanta sa karaoke, pero ngayon meron na akong Platinum at brand ambassador pa!’

She added with excitement, ‘Very significant ang Platinum Karaoke sa career ko kasi malaki ang tulong sa akin nito sa pag-aaral ng mga kanta. Minsan, hindi ko na kailangang humingi ng study materials dahil using my own Platinum Karaoke, naaaral ko na ang mga ito at the convenience of our home. Saan ka pa?’

Truly, Platinum Karaoke is the only choice for both Vice Ganda and Angeline Quinto. With thousands of songs more than what its competitors provide in the market, you get to “Birit Pa More” with their two new products, and two amazing and inspiring performers. 

Platinum Karaoke is available in all leading music stores nationwide. For more information, please visit www.platinumkaraoke.ph, like The PlatinumKaraoke in Facebook and follow Twitter and Instagram accounts @platinumkaraoke.

As part of Reef’s Just Passing Thru campaign, here’s more about their groundbreaking new shoes and sandals this summer

 



 

1. What is Reef presenting today?

 

We’re presenting our new Rover Collection, a nod to the brand’s Just Passing Through mentality. This is a new line of men’s and women’s footwear designed with a traveling surfer in mind. The collectiion also showcases Reef Swellular™ Technology in our footwear. We’re also hosting the premier of Surfing 7107, a documentary on the surfer lifestyle here in the Philippines.

4. What is Surf 7107 about? What makes it special? Surf 7107 is about surfing in the Philippines, and how much surfing has impacted lesser known places around the country, and has turned these places into booming and burgeoning surf destinations and tourist havens. The first of hopefully many documentaries, it starts in La Union where the first ever surf school in the country was born.

There is a market for surf brands out there, and it's getting bigger and bigger. Here's hoping that this Reef-produced documentary changes things, and brings Reef into the forefront as the leading surf brand out there.Reef is a surf brand that not only cares about surfing and the lifestyle that goes with it, but also cares about the communities it helps and touches through surfing competitions, events, and environmental activities. This is the call to action of this documentary produced and supported by Reef Philippines.

5. How is the documentary related to Reef?

 

Reef is all about the Surfing lifestyle.  The documentary shows just that, how a little known town in La Union has grown to be a tourist and surfing destination, how surfing has helped the community with jobs as surfing instructors, how local business has sprouted with resto-bars, surf shops, and surf schools, and how support from brands such as Reef can mean a lot to a community bornn from surfing.

 

THE BEGINNING

 

Reef's twenty-eight year heritage traces back to two brothers from Argentina, Fernando and Santiago “Santi” Aguerre. Fueled by their passion for surfing, and armed with a unique entrepreneurial spirit, the brothers acted on an idea to create a high quality, active lifestyle sandal. Attracted to the Southern California lifestyle, Santi moved to California in the early 80’s and would shortly be reunited with his brother. Fernando graduated from Law School, and headed to La Jolla to help co-found Reef. With $4000 working capital, hard work, dedication and some savvy marketing ideas, the brothers built Reef into the #1 sandal brand. Reef's official Birthday, recognized as “Saint Reef” day is Monday November 26th, 1984 – the day of the first sandal factory trip to Sao Paulo, Brazil. 

PRODUCT

 

In 1985, Reef introduced the Striped Smoothy, a super soft and comfortable sandal with a nylon strap and large Reef logo on the heel. The bold striped colors and casual, comfy footbed made it an instant classic. Sales of the sandal exploded as the brothers invested in their first advertisements – an image of the sandal embedded in an exotic island scene. The Smoothy is still in the line today, and is one of the best selling Reef sandals of all time. Now twenty-five years later, the company is thriving as one of the leading surf brands in the world offering authentic and innovative footwear and apparel for guys and girls. Expanding from staple every day beach sandals to becoming a leader in major comfort and novelty innovations, Reef has evolved from its humble sandal beginnings. The range now includes a men’s apparel division launched in 2003, followed by the launch of girl’s swimwear in 2008.  Reef also recently launched Reef Redemption; a program intended to lessen our footprint on the Environment. Reef Redemption initiatives thrive through a product series using green technology, our culture of giving and our was founded on by Fernando and Santi back in 1984. Reef is a core surf company. We create authentic, comfortable and innovative products intended to inspire the surfer in all of us. 

Alternative Online Educational Show 'Thinking Man's Classroom' to Premiere This Month

With today’s landscape of information and technology dominating media and the web, it is easy to say things without really thinking about what we say. Such a condition reduces and simplifies the contemporary world in all its complexity. At the same time, however, these advances in the availability and growth of information and technology also brings about the possibility of bypassing traditional means and modes of production and exchange, one of which is education.

An online channel featuring 4 shows initially, Thinking Man’s Classroom envisions itself as an avenue for the free discussion of ideas and culture, with several podcasts segmented, highlighting different aspects of reinventing education.

First of these is The Museum of Randomly Perfected Broken Bodies, a story telling show with a darker angle on life's little secrets, little untold stories which cuts through the usual limits of what can be said. Hosting this show is Manu Respall, a visionary conceptual artist, a character actor, a poet, writer and an explorer of realms. Manu believes that there is beauty to all the madness in the world. With random characters guesting in the show to contribute in its subtle abstraction, the stories will be written by Manu himself.

Second in the line-up of shows is Random Fandom, a show designed to turn up the geek inside all of us, whether it be movies, shows, toys or pop culture. Hosting this show is Jon Sideño, a book enthusiast and an avid fan of Star Trek and James Bond.

Next is Principals of Principle, a talk show turning to matters of philosophy and opinion in free-wheeling discussions among its hosts. Principals of Principle brings together a panel of people from different walks of life to exchange ideas which aim to present as many sides of the topic as possible. Hosting this show are sci-fi enthusiast Nii Foronda, journalist Alma Anonas-Carpio, VJ-presenter Angel Jones, poet-critic Vince Dioquino, cathecist Kim Tengco and photographer-activist Niccolo Cosme.

Last but certainly not least of Thinking Man’s Classroom’s lineup is For Word and By Word, a show about the power of words over a population of upright creatures that communicate through sound and gesture, performance and imagination. Hosted by performance poet, educator and radio host Kooky Tuason, the show aims to prove that words are more powerful than an army of armed warriors in the arena of life because we are moved by words and live by them.

Born through Kooky’s vision of helping out fellow artists and forged through her innovating initiative, Thinking Man’s Classroom aspires at becoming a space for different people to freely discuss what is happening in today's world. Directed by Clayshop's August Lyle Espino, Thinking Man’s Classroom premieres February 23, 2015. Stay up to date and follow the show on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Pinterest.

While my boyfriend, husband now, and I were still dating in college, we always bought and sold stuff through bazaars so we could fund our dates. With these experiences, I started  dreaming of having my own business. Naturally, when I finally entered the corporate world, I started my online business and my first product was Glutathione Injections. When the growth of competition was getting bigger, we needed to transcend from it. So, we thought of creating our own glutathione soap and include it in our glutathione injection set. With the help of a toll manufacturer, we were able to create our all-in-one soap. It’s very creation was a free item of our glutathione injection set. It was a come on to generate clients. It came a surprise when all our clients kept on convincing us to sell our soap separately. After six months of giving it for free and with the intention of making our clients happy, we officially launched Sofia’s Glutathione Soap with Kojic and Collagen and sold it at Php 100 per bar.
