My personal experience in interviewing CT Graphics

In interviewing CT Graphics, the group I'm in, which later been named "Erudite" is a fantastic group. Consisting of Kinsey Joever, Lennon Zamora, Anna Paule, Keith and Me, Kyle Rili. At first, these people were acquaintances, Kinsey, a hard-working transferee. Lennon, a guy whose awesome at traditional art, Anna, a friendly girl and a hard-working one too, Keith, a fresh transferee, she's good at editing videos and lastly, me, I am the kind of guy who you can order around and not complain, well except orders that are not in my knowledge. Together, we worked hard to meet our objectives. First, Kinsey, wrote a letter of request to grant us an interview to our picked multimedia company, CT Graphics, a company thaseveral t designs and makes logos, days later, we were accepted to have an interview session with the Director of CT Graphics, Mr. Caloy. Then we prepared 10 questions, each is equally important than the other. At that time, I was a little nervous and at the same time I was giddy to meet the people that has a steady and a successful job involving multimedia. The designated time of our interview was 9 o' clock in the morning, CT Graphics located at Makati City.

(I am so not ready in this picture :-)

We had a hard time finding each other in Makati City, because we separately traveled on our own. I was the first to arrive, I had a hard time finding the building of CT Graphics, because the buildings kind of look like each other and finding the Trassiera street is just confusing. After having to ask several police and traffic enforcers, I finally found their building. It was around 7:30 A.M., we were suppose to meet at 8:00 A.M.. I decided to explore around the vicinity and maybe take some good shots and video materials. I went to a park and took some pictures by the water fountain. After several shots, a man approached me, with her, assuming, his wife told me that taking photos here was forbidden, but I continued since nobody was watching. After an hour, my group finally was waiting for me in front of the building, I hurried to meet them. At last we were gonna interview them.

The interview went splendid, I went on filming the whole thing, while my classmates asks several questions. They were good people, they showed us their products and all...

After interviewing the Managing Director, Mr. Caloy Trinidad of CT Graphics, I have learned many things about a multimedia business. I learned that there are multiple persons behind every work done inside CT Graphics, a section of artist which handles the design itself, a person who handles the finance of every project and a director who manages everything. With the questions said and answered, I have learned that the client and the artist should cooperate, in order to have a successful negotiation and a beautiful outcome. I have learned that every member of CT Graphics is a decision maker and they help each other out in any way possible. We asked Mr. Caloy Trinidad the question, “What is the secret of a successful business?” he then said. “Be honest with your client” and I found this true, because that is the best thing to do and it helps out our crumbling society today, just be honest. In the midst of the interview, I can’t help but notice the way they treat each other, kind like brothers and sisters raised in the same home and I learned that one of the major factors that Mr. Caloy Trinidad had missed in his answer to the secret of a successful business, it is to be kind to one another. The things I have learned had taught me well and to have met professional at the field I want to take is amazing, the people at CT Graphics were cool and good and the whole experience was awesome.

I thank my group, Erudite Production ans CT Graphics, thank you again.

Development of multimedia businesses

Since ancient times, artist are commissioned all over the world, now that practice is still active. In the Philippines, in the past, it was probably the same. Artists was commissioned by aristocrats to paint a picture, design houses, repaint a house and probably more.

As time goes by, visible changes already occur, technology was showing. Inventions are at large and with this some traditional artists was slowly changing to something more advance and firm. Multimedia business started emerging and transaction was always made. Art was very much appreciated by everyone because it is almost applied everywhere.

Nowadays, multimedia has already changed the society into something more beautiful and so are businesses. With the knowledge of innovative people, the operation has become more easy and convenient. Multimedia has changed how the Philippines establish a business. Today, a business can be done with a computer and by easily sending e-mails and chatting with different persons. So much has changed and things are alot convenient now because of multimedia.

My Multimedia Business

Thinking about the future, with all the knowledge of drawing and the fact that I am continuously learning. I wish to build a company or a business of animation, I wish to build up an animation studio because I have loved this popular animation studio, "Ghibli Studios". Their works are amazing and beautiful, their director, "Hayao Miyazaki"(retired on September 1, 2013), who I have idolized for years, makes sure his movies are  for all ages and that fantasy and reality are merged in all his movies.

My specialization in this company, would be concepts, animating and story-writing.

I will name my business, "CLAY", because like a clay, we can make something out of scratch, but nonetheless, I think it's a weird name....

I think, that "how good is the animation" is a big factor when it comes to making a prosperous animation business, then again, i would also think that the story is generally the biggest factor in making an animation business prosperous, because, nowadays, I would see cartoons and animes that has a unique and at the same time, a weird story line, like Adventure Time.
