The Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) marked a significant milestone recently, with the signing of a memorandum of agreement for the CCP Animation and Comics Grant. This event celebrated the talented grantees selected in June 2022, who are poised to embark on their visionary projects from the last quarter of this year to June 2024, concluding the last leg of CCP’s grant initiative.
Exciting narratives await comic enthusiasts, with tales including the captivating legend of “Sinogo,” a mythical creature inspired by a Kalinga folk epic, and a celestial drama from which the enchanting cycle of night and day unfolds.
On the animation front, audiences can anticipate immersive stories featuring “Tungkung Langit at Laon Sina,” “Bernardo Carpio” and the legendary “Tattooed Men.”
The grant recipients, consisting of animators and comics artists, will each receive funding tailored to their craft. Animators will benefit from a grant of P2 million, while comics artists will be awarded P330,000 each. The culmination of their endeavors will be officially unveiled in July 2024.
