CinemaBravo

Cornerstone Entertainment is stepping into the world of vertical series production with the introduction of two new titles designed to captivate digital audiences. CinemaBravo was present during their launch event, which combined playful interaction with cast introductions and a glimpse of what viewers can expect.

Before the formal question-and-answer session with select bloggers, the cast engaged in a lively round of “Green Flag, Red Flag,” a game where they discussed various topics on love and relationships. This gave the audience a chance to know the stars on a more personal level, while also setting the tone for the romance-driven narratives of the shows.

The spotlight was on two of the production company’s fast-rising digital love teams:

• NikoLas — composed of Yes My Love breakout star Niko Badayos and Perlas, who are set to headline the vertical series 1, 2, 3 Boyfriend ni Marie.
• PatCheska — featuring Patrick Rocamora of P-pop boy group VXON and rising actress Cheska Cabrera, who will star in My Favorite Liar.

Both online shows promise to highlight fresh romantic chemistry while telling stories tailored for the online audience.

Cornerstone introduced the full ensembles and creative teams behind the two series:

• 1-2-3, Boyfriend ni Marie
  • Cast: Niko Badayos, Perlas, Eli Padilla, Aaron Gonzalez, Zoozoo, Naia Ching, Samantha Samarita, Sofia Jarhling
  • Director: James Mayo
  • Release: September 26 on BeetzeePLAY
• My Favorite Liar
  • Cast: Patrick Rocamora, Cheska Cabrera, Kobe Michael Francisco, Angela Balagtas
