The UP Film Institute congratulates its UPFI Faculty member, Prof. Nick Deocampo for being chosen as the FACINE 24 Gawad Gintong Ani (Gold Harvest) Lifetime Achievement Awardee.
Director of FACINE (filipino arts and cinema, international), Mauro Feria Tumbocon Jr wrote on his Facebook page:
“On the occasion of the launching of FACINE celebration of the Centenary of Filipino Cinema, 2017-2019, it has seen fit to give recognition to an individual artist and two organizations who/which have worked towards the growth and promotion of Filipino cinema in the fields of education and history; and in the challenging endeavor of film archiving, preservation and restoration.
Nick Deocampo is being cited for his lifetime work as filmmaker, educator and film historian whose works have greatly impacted a new generation of filmmakers, teachers and students of Filipino cinema.
Nick Deocampo, already a filmmaker of world-renown, whose documentaries where personal and national histories intersect, interrogating gender, sexuality and nation – Revolutions Happen like Refrains in a Song (1986), Sex Warriors and the Samurai (1995), Private Wars (1995) – exemplify a new direction in documentary filmmaking, is undoubtedly a dominant figure in the first independent film movement in the country, has also become one of the early advocates of film literacy crafting a guidebook on film education and organizing workshops across the country as well; and now, FACINE is bringing attention to probably, his most daunting work, a monumental five-volume history of Philippine cinema, both as print publications and video documentaries of which three volumes are now completed: “Cine: Spanish Influences on Early Cinema in the Philippines” (2003); “Film: American Influences on Philippine Cinema” (2011); and the latest, “Eiga: Cinema in the Philippines during World War II” (2016).”
FACINE 24: the 24th annual filipino international cine festival runs from October 18 through 23 in different venues, with the Main Festival and Competition on October 20-22 at the Roxie Theater, San Francisco.
