My Game
Watch out for the basketball documentary from Nike titled MY GAME. It will be out this September and it tells of the humble beginnings of players like Ren Ren Ritualo, James Yap, Arwind Santos, Don Don Hontiveros, Rico Maierhoffer, and Jobe Nkemakolam.
The one-hour docu is directed by Carlo Ledesma and produced by Mel Lozano. Very interesting concept. It's in its final stages of shooting and post-production to begin soon. I had a long chat with Direk Carlo this noon and he told me that it was my article on Jobe (Jobe's Ladder that was featured in my Monday column in Business Mirror) that landed the Blue Eagle his part. I'll re-post that story.
Carlo kidded Jobe, "You owe your part to Rick." Hahaha. Nah. It's all the big guy. He deserves all the luck. If anything, my reward is that the column or even the stories or commentary within affect people in a positive way.
And here are some stills from the film. Enjoy!
