A Secret Love Affair

Is Romeo and Juliet still relevant today?

With the help of Suzette and Karay, we were able to prove that it does.

With a relationship spanning 7 years, these two were able to prove that love does survive, if enough sacrifice is put into it. Through the years, they were aided by friends (especially the driver and her best friend) in strengthening their relationship.

Join them by watching this hilarious journey of how a dedicated young man will go through all the trials the world has set for him to capture the heart of his one true love.

Watertank Studios headed all the way to Tagum for this video shoot. The team made the journey outside Davao City because they believed in these two’s love for each other. Although both shoot dates were hot and humid, the team made it fun and engaging which brought out the couple’s natural charming self.

The couple were shy at the start but the cast eventually warmed up to the idea of being in front of a camera and had a ball!



"makawala ug sapot ang video. makatawa kos love story ni karay ug suzie... the 11 years 8 months and 2 days was perfectly portrayed in 5:44 mins... congrats KAZIE... nice work Mr. Val & Team..." - Weena Jade

So is Romeo and Juliet still relevant today? Yes, it is. And we hope so many more relationships are built on trust and friendship like Kiray and Suzette’s.

Thank you to everyone who helped the couple achieve their vision of showing the world their love.

Risk Addicted by Gasulina Music Video

"Creativity on the fly"

That's what we do here in WaterTank Studios. We create on the fly. No other project tested this claim to its limits than this one. Everything felt last minute, rushed or forced. That amount of stress packed inside two of days would make anyone falter, I'd imagine. It was difficult -- and we loved every minute of it.

I Am Ink Short Film

I recently purchased a LCD Loupe for my HDSLR and I wanted to try it out. It was a good thing a friend was getting his full back ink done on that day so I shot a few clips and compiled it into a short film. Enjoy! :) Big thanks to Francis Zubieta, Bogz Flores and I AM Ink Studio.

"He said. She said" Erwin and Mimi Prenup

Here is the film of two individuals sharing the same story with different perspectives. The scenes were based on true events only exaggerated... a little. The couple wanted us to place a disclaimer at the start of the film to assure the parents of the bride. Why? You'll see. Just watch. Enjoy! :)

Ina and Paloy Action Prenup Movie

Our personal goal is to make every couple's prenuptial film as unique as their love story, individual character and couple idiosyncrasies. This film exemplifies what we mean.

A short premise: the couple met while training martial arts. Both bride and groom were at competition level in skills. So what better to show off their uniqueness than in an action movie, right? Enjoy! (please view video in full screen)
