The Philippines bagged 10 awards of recognition in the recently concluded U.S. International Film & Video Festival. Eight of these were awarded to GMA-7, while two went to ABS-CBN.<\/p>\n

The GMA-7 or Kapuso Network, received two prestigious Gold Camera Awards this year: One for Brigada: “Gintong Krudo” (“Black Gold”) in the Television Documentary: Social Issues category; and the other for Wagas: Mga Kuwento ng Totoong Pag-ibig in the Television: Docudrama category.<\/p>\n

\u201cGintong Krudo,” is a documentary on the lives of impoverished children, who swim in the severely polluted waters of the Navotas Fish Port to collect and sell spilled oil.<\/p>\n

Wagas received the award specifically for the episode entitled \u201cWalang Imposible: Mary Grace and Ron Sapinoso Love Story,” in which Sid Lucero re-enacted a portion of the life of Ron Sapinoso, a man with cerebral palsy, and his pursuit of his love interest, Mary Grace (played by Gwen Zamora).<\/p>\n

Silver Screen Awards were likewise given to three GMA News TV programs: Reel-Time: “Dungkoy” in Television: Documentary Biography; Reel Time: “Silang Wala sa Mapa” (“Off the Grid”) in Television: Documentary Health, Medical; and State of the Nation with Jessica Soho (Super Typhoon Yolanda Coverage) in the category of Television Continuing News Stories.<\/p>\n

Reel-Time tells the story of Dungkoy, a 10-year-old boy who takes care of his paralyzed grandmother, and “Silang Wala sa Mapa” is about the B\u2019laan tribe in the remote areas of Sarangani.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the network snagged Silver Screen Awards for Front Row (\u201cUlilang Lubos\u201d) in Television: Social Issues Documentary and for Reporter’s Notebook (“Bakas ng Trahedya” \/ “Scars of Tragedy”) in Television: Current Affairs Documentary.<\/p>\n

“Ulilang Lubos” tells the tale of a 10-year-old girl who is the breadwinner of her family while “Bakas ng Trahedya” takes a look at Yolanda survivors in Eastern Samar and Tacloban, Leyte.<\/p>\n

Picture! Picture! was also honored with a Certificate for Creative Excellence in the Television: Game Show category.<\/p>\n
