HUAWEI Philippines launched the nova academy masterclasses on the Huawei Mobile PH Facebook page in the first week of April last month. The opening of the nova academy is inspired by its namesake, the nova smartphone line — Huawei’s youth-centered products at mid-range accessibility with flagship camera and vlogging features.
With the goal of encouraging and empowering youths to explore their passions and interests with the best equipment available, Huawei’s nova academy covers different topics on content creation — with notes on how to execute your learnings with nova products!
A dance and music workshop with Riva Quenery
Last April 2, master dancer Riva Quenery opened for Huawei nova academy with the popular dance group, UP Streetdance to talk about how to get into hip hop music. Together, they discussed the traditions and history of hip hop, aesthetics of music selection, basics of choreography, and elements of successful and quality freestyling.
Some memorable moments from the class were when they not only delved into the mechanics and practical tips, but spoke candidly about passion: how dance is open to anyone no matter how young or old, how we should celebrate how our passions make us different, and how a community of passionate people can come together and support each other with their individual skills put together.
They closed the 45-minute live stream with a heavy-hitter dance demonstration from UP Streetdance, all filmed on the new nova 9 SE. Reflecting on the experience, the dancers especially gushed about the phone’s SuperCharge technology — taking just 15 minutes to reach 60% battery life, on a massive 4,000mAh battery. They are always on the go and practicing for hours at a time, needing a device that can record such long practices at any given moment. And with the nova 9 SE’s graphene cooling technology, they rarely have to worry about the phone overheating despite hours of recording. A phone like the nova 9 SE that can keep up with their energy has been really helpful.
Best of all, the masterclass and also any other masterclass for nova academy will remain online for anyone who missed it! You can view the recorded class directly here.
