Patubas Documentary Film Festival

Patubas Documentary Film Festival Come and enjoy our good harvest of stories and personal growth ๐ŸŒพ

"Patubas", derived from the Hiligaynon term for "harvest", is a documentary film festival organized by the College of Communication of West Visayas State University. In 2023, the instructors of three major courses of the Senior Broadcasting students collaborated to organize the first PATUBAS Documentary Film Festival as an alternative learning assessment (ALA) for these courses: BR225 (Producing D

ocumentaries for Broadcasting, Interactive and Emerging Media), BR229 (Sound Design for Broadcasting, Interactive and Emerging Media), and BR224 (Non-linear Post-production of Content for Broadcasting, Interactive and Emerging Media). This activity aimed to showcase the studentsโ€™ acquired skills in documentary film production, where they were mentored during the production process, their films evaluated and recognized according to their respective merits, and finally premiered in a public screening at the Cinematheque Centre Iloilo. This activity was driven by the notion that while film production technology today can enable anyone to easily produce their own films, making a film that can make a dent on its audienceโ€™s awareness and perspective of reality as well as impact change requires strategic training to achieve. The documentary films produced for these courses have been reaching a wider audience since their premiere. They have been featured in Academedia, a film screening activity under the Film Development Council of the Philippinesโ€™ (FDCP) program, Academic Film Society, during which the films were screened nationwide through different FDCP Cinematheques in the country. This is part of the College of Communicationโ€™s sincere pledge to provide our students with innovative learning experience in Film Literacy and Production through our Film Education and Production Program โ€“ a program that aims to create opportunities for students (1) to learn from industry practitioners/experts and (2) to produce their own films as their contribution to our countryโ€™s cultural, educational, and technological memory.

"Tumandok" filmmakers Sumagaysay-Salvadico and Salvadico unpacked the topics, "Navigating Authenticity and Cultural Sensitivity in Filmmaking" and "Conceptualizing Strategic Storytelling in Cinema" on day one; while "Hasang" director de la Cruz and "Sin-o Gaeogaeog sa Eugan-Eugan?" director Salmorin had the students dive deep into the essentials of post-production on day two.

Both days culminated with practical exercises that enabled the students to demonstrate skills in concept pitching, cinematography, and editing. By the end of the two-day workshop, a total of six (6) 3-minuter films were produced.

This is first in the series of intensive training activities that the students will go through as they prepare for the PATUBAS Documentary Film Festival on April 2026, an alternative learning activity (ALA) for their course, BR225 Documentary Film Production.

โ€œLOCAL VIEWING FOR A CAUSEโ€ EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS!

Held last June 6, 2025 in Sinogbuhan, San Joaquin, Iloilo, our humble screening turned into a powerful act of generosity.

Every peso raised went straight to Ibay and Nonoy, turning kindness into real change.

Huge kudos to Taliambung and Batobalani Productions for leading this initiative with heart and purpose. ๐Ÿ’›
