On September 6, Kapamilya stars Francine Diaz and Seth Fedelin discussed their views regarding social media.
At the ‘Fractured Grand Media Day’ event, which LionhearTV covered, Diaz acknowledged how social media helps celebrities with their endorsements.
“Mahalaga po, kasi kailangan din po namin sa trabaho and required din po ‘yan especially sa mga endorsements.”
However, she noted that she could survive without access to her online platforms.
“Pero, personally po, I think masu-survive naman po kung wala akong social media accounts. Actually, marami naman po talaga kasi pwedeng gawin kesa sa pag-scroll lang, pero ‘yun nga po, lagi natin dala ang mga phones, so parang napo-force tayo na ito ‘yung gawin natin at ito ‘yung nakasanayan natin.”
As for Fedelin, he agreed with Diaz, citing what age he began using a mobile phone and accessing social media.
“Tama po ‘yung sinabi ni Francine po, kailangan namin sa trabaho pero kung talagang magre-reset ang mundo na wala talagang social media, kaya po siguro. Kasi nagka-cellphone lang naman ako grade 9.”
As for their roles, Diaz admitted that she felt nervous about the maturity of their characters in their upcoming series.
“Noong una po kinabahan po kami kasi po may parang kinuwestyon namin na, ‘Pwede na ba ‘to, pwede na ba tayo sa ganito?’ Kasi nga po ‘yung Fractured, may pagka-matured na siya para sa akin na i-play ‘yung ganong roles. Pero, at the same time, na-excite po kami kasi nagsilbing po siyang parang guide sa growth namin as actors and actresses po.”
Fedelin echoed Diaz’s statement, highlighting how their director guided them in portraying characters in a series with mature themes.
“Kinabahan kami kasi nga ‘yun nagmumura kami dito, malayo sa mga nagawa namin. Kaya pinag-isipan talaga namin kung okay lang bang gumawa nito.
“And then nandiyan si Direk na maya’t-maya kami nag tatanong kung ano pa ‘yung pwede naming idagdag sa bawat character namin, kung ano pa ‘yung pwede naming idagdag doon. Masaya, masaya dahil panibagong experience, panibagong, mahirap kasi ‘yun, na kaya pala namin mag-mura sa acting.”
