Wild Bird Club of the Philippines Mock Poster

This is a mock-up poster I made for my DEVC 207 (Design & Production of Audio Visual Dev't. Comm. Materials) class at the UP Open University. This is for a mock campaign (i.e., the campaign is not an actual campaign) of the Wild Bird Club of the Philippines (but the club is real, and the mock campaign is aligned with the club's objectives since I actually am a member of the club) to discourage people from hunting birds and instead go into bird photography.

Right click on poster and open on new tab to view large. On the new tab, click on the image to zoom.

RH Bill Sentiments Flood the Net

After the fire over the Cybercrime Law and the fad over Amalayer had died down, the RH Bill is back as one of the hottest trending topics in the Philippines right now.

Netizens, both for and against the RH Bill, have been tweeting their sentiments about the bill since December 12, the morning the bill won 113 vs. 104 on its second reading in Congress.

Most of those who were for the bill expressed their sentiments against the threats made by some Catholic priests against those who are for the bill:

If I die, I will face a loving and understanding God.. Not your bishops who preaches that God despise us all because of RH bill! #ProRHBill

You anti RH people are all concernedabout the unborn. What about those already born languishing in Poverty. - Zubiri #ProRHBill

I'm a Christian, but that doesn't mean I don't know when a religious institution is being stupid from lack of foresight. #PRORHBILL

Yes! Pro-RH bill ako. Kahit pa ma excommunicate pa ako ng simbahang Katoliko, I'm brave enough to stand for what I believe in. #ProRHBill

Those who are against the bill, on the other hand, still don't want to give up yet saying that it is not only their religion that tells them to go against the bill but the knowledge that the bill won't do anything to alleviate poverty in the country.

If we lose, we lose. But I'd rather fight then lose, than give up and have never stood up for my principles at all. #NOTORHBILL

#NoToRHBill -- not because I'm Catholic by paper. we have more important issues than sexual activities to spend on

When a society embraces a contraceptive culture and mentality, their people lose respect for life #rhbill #NOtoRHBill

As of December 14, 2012, the president has certified the RH Bill as urgent which means it is "no longer subject to the three-day rule," which means it may be approved on third and final reading immediately after hurdling second reading.
