A documentary series about the Protected Areas of the Philippines, aired on the ABS-CBN News Channel. Produced by the Biodiversity Management Bureau of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Post-production supervision, color grading, and music scoring across all four episodes.

The series was shot across multiple locations and camera systems — primary footage from multiple Sony A7 III cameras alongside Insta360, GoPro, DJI action cameras and drone aerials — each with different color science, exposure characteristics, and compression behavior. Color work involved bringing these sources into a consistent look across episodes, while also managing outdoor interview footage shot under challenging, variable natural light and shifting weather conditions.

Music scoring drew from a licensed stock library, with tracks selected and arranged to match the pacing and emotional tone of each episode’s subject — from the open coastal landscapes of Siargao to the highland indigenous terrain of Mount Pulag.
