Southeast Asia ICH Video Documentary (Philippines)
Southeast Asia ICH Video Documentary (Philippines)\n\nThe environment surrounding intangible cultural heritage (ICH) is changing rapidly in the face of waves of rapid urbanization and globalization. In the face of such changes, documenting actual scenes of ICH in video form presents one of the most effective ways of identifying trends in ongoing developments and raising the profile of ICH. However, achieving this requires robust support and coordinated efforts due to the relative inadequacy of the conditions for producing such documentary material in the Asia-Pacific region.\n\nThe International Information and Networking Centre for Intangible Cultural Heritage in the Asia-Pacific Region under the auspices of UNESCO (ICHCAP) shines a light on the ICH of Asia-Pacific and introduces its value to the public through video projects depicting ICH. ICHCAP conducts joint projects with member states to portray real-life scenes of ICH alongside experts, communities, NGOs, and other stakeholders in various countries. As a result, it has produced fifty videos on the ICH of Central Asia through the phase-one joint project on Central Asia and an additional fifty videos through the phase-two video project on the ICH of Southeast Asia. These videos are being screened through broadcasting companies and at film festivals in each country, in addition to distribution via YouTube and other\nchannels.\n\nVideos represent the most accurate method of capturing ICH as it exists in the real world, as well as being effective tools for communicating with the public. ICHCAP will endeavor to continue vividly documenting the scenes of ICH that are hidden across the Asia-Pacific region with the aim of raising the profile of ICH elements as treasures of humanity and introducing them to the public.\n\nThis collection includes 10 ICH videos produced by the NCCA in collaboration with ICHCAP.\n\nBuklog: Thanksgiving Ritual System of the Subanen\nPiña Handloom Weaving / Hab\u0002Eon Nga Piña\nThe Feast Of Our Lady Of Peñafrancia\nIfugao Mud Dyeing: The Traditional Dyeing Process Of The Ifugao In Northern Luzon\nParul Sampernandu: The Giant Lantern Tradition Of San Fernando City, Pampanga\nIgal: The Traditional Dance Of The Sama In Tawi-Tawi\nLepa: The Traditional Boat Building Of The Sama In Tawi Tawi\nPoong Nazareno: The Feast and Traslacio of The Black Nazarene Of Quiapo, Manila\nMoryonan: Penitential Ritual Of Marinduque\nMoryon: Mask Making In Marinduque
