GMA Artists Engage In Usapang Artista

TV and film narratives need to be performed for audience appreciation. Performance is the responsibility of actors. The latter are seen by the public through the characters they portray and projects they do. Some audience members even think that the actors’ on-screen and off-screen personas are one and the same, and their work begins and ends on the screen.

The online show, How Do You Feel?: Usapang Artista, invites the public to listen in on the conversations of GMA Artist Center talents and allows them to know more about the craft (acting as a profession and creative process) and the lives of the stars.

Hosted by acting coach Ana Feleo with fellow producers Chynna Ortaleza, Benjamin Alves and Mikoy Morales, the show sees stars asking and answering questions done in a roundtable discussion format.

“All of us are inspired by the shows we have watched in which artists of diverse backgrounds talk,” said Chynna in a media call via Zoom. “Para kasing ang sarap nilang pakinggan. We are inspired by that kind of material... Since all of us are (cooped up at home due to) ECQ, there’s a need (for artists) to, like, reconnect to each other and do something together.”
