Tahanan

May 18, 2025

One of the things I’ve noticed is that there aren’t too many Filipino American stories, let alone on film crews. So I’ve been trying to find as many AAPI stories as I can be part of for BTS photos.

Tahanan is a filipino short film, and even though the entire crew was fresh out of college, it was probably the most organized, polite and energetic set I’ve been on to date. Vivien was an amazing first-time director, and I’d definitely jump at the chance to work with her again, can’t wait to see her success continue.

Below are some of the BTS snaps I got on film. Full set of official photos here.
