The Puregold CinePanalo Film Festival has announced a partnership with Terminal Six Post (T6), a premier post-production company, to ensure its lineup of Filipino films meets global streaming standards.
The collaboration aims to enhance the festival’s second edition by preparing its films for platforms such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.
Terminal Six, known for handling over 160 films and series for theatrical and digital release, will provide technical expertise to the eight full-length films participating in the festival.
As part of the agreement, T6 will oversee final assembly, Digital Cinema Package (DCP) creation, and quality assurance (QA) to ensure the films are ready for both theatrical screenings and streaming. The post-production house will also offer discounted rates to participating filmmakers.
Chad Vidanes, chairman of Terminal Six Post, expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, “We laud Puregold CinePanalo’s effort to create beautiful and heartwarming Filipino films. This partnership is an opportunity to deliver technically excellent work and share Filipino stories on a global scale.”
Puregold Senior Marketing Manager Ivy Hayagan-Piedad welcomed the partnership, highlighting the importance of producing high-quality films. “We believe that Puregold CinePanalo films should carry the narratives of Filipino joy and culture with excellence. We thank T6 for sharing their expertise in helping our films reach a wider audience,” she said.
To further support filmmakers, T6 will host a one-day workshop covering topics such as archiving and preparing films for promotion and distribution after the festival. T6 will also present special awards during the festival’s grand awards night.
This partnership complements other industry collaborations, including CMB Film Services, Inc., which committed P1 million worth of equipment rentals for the full-length films.
Puregold CinePanalo aims to support Filipino cinema by offering financial grants and opportunities for emerging and established filmmakers. This year, eight full-length films will receive production support, while 25 student filmmakers will be awarded P150,000 each for short film production.
