DIFFUN, Quirino, November 2 (PIA) --The Department  of Agrarian Reform (DAR) here recently conducted a two-day film-making seminar-workshop in preparation for the first-ever film making contest which was launched recently by the DAR regional office.

The workshop was facilitated by Benjie de Yro of the Philippine Information Agency (PIA) regional office and it was attended by some 72 students and professionals from  Quirino State University, Diffun and Cabarroguis campuses; Nueva Vizcaya State University in Bayombong and PLT College in Solano.

The participants were taught on basic film making and the guidelines on production of short documentary films as their basis in producing their own entries for the competition.

Dubbed as DAVVUN 2015, the entries shall feature the milestones of CARPER  implementation in the region and other agrarian reform success stories.

Tarcila Pineda , information officer of DAR Quirino said this project will be an effective vehicle for information dissemination on the success stories of Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries propelled by the agency’s  programs and projects.

“The competition is  confined only to the Cagayan Valley Region and  the film makers  can be students or professions who are  legitimate residents of the region since 2010,” Pineda said.

Based on the completion rules and mechanics, there is no  limit imposed as to the number of participants in a team so long as all names shall have been duly registered.

Pineda said participants to the contest are given until November 30 to submit their entries to the DAR provincial office. (ALM/TCB/PIA-2/Cagayan)
