The media party hosted by the new M Studio of Deo Moreno, a PPCO member said that he plans to encourage Philippine talent and culture at his theater club. Local music talent from Minerva Recordings, performers of Mentor Productions for shows, film screenings, photo exhibits are welcome! Young 'wave wannabe' singers were taking turns practising their songs on stage and recording 1 1/2 minute samples for a talent contest to be hosted by German Moreno, while under the guidance of Teresa Torralba of Mentor Productions who organizes the 'Filipinos Making Waves' Festival in August, including their eager stage mothers who watched them from the back; cash and maybe a recording contract in the Philippines were the prizes. Most of the youths are in their teenage years, take singing lessons and perform in small shows. With all this support from M Studio, Mentor Productions, PPCO, their stage mothers, their dreams to make careers from their singing can be realized with time and effort. Dinner and drinks were served by Moreno's staff and this hang-out will be opening soon to the public by July.
