Meet Arkeo’s lucky charm.
Cash
Her original name was Petty Cash. An apt name when she was little—now a grown lady, she prefers to be called Cash.
Her favorite person in the world is Mang Dolpo. She loves running up and down the stairs of the office.
Gianne is not as crazy but she shares the same bubbly and fun personality of Drew Barrymore.
Gianne Bernabe
Associate Producer,
Corporate Accounts
Gianne’s transformation from casual to professional clothing is like seeing a sweet sixteener into a no-nonsense career woman. What a difference 4-inch heels makes! Don’t be deceived by the innocent smile, she’ll close that deal before you know it.
It’s easy to see why Uma Thurman is her favorite actress. Cool cats.
Punch Pineda
Associate Producer, Corporate Accounts
When Punch found out that everyday is casual Friday in Arkeo, she immediately applied. Punch is our resident rock star, with the ink and spunk to boot.
Tracy is feeling “Friends” a la Jennifer Aniston.
Tracy Sarte
Executive Producer,
Corporate Division
Operations Head
Tracy’s iron fist with the soft touch style of management makes her the perfect producer. Tough love some people call it. Tracy is the overall planning general, master producer, editor and Martha Stewart rolled into one. She’s the ultimate negotiator. Must...bend...to...her...will.
Margie is Sandra Bullock
in Miss Congeniality.
Margie Templo (Partner)
Artistic Director, Film Division
Resident producer and director
Margie is Arkeo’s official jetsetter. She’s out and about, peddling our works picking up phrases of French, Japanese, German, Korean, and Dutch as she meets new friends along the way. Her unflappable style of producing (nothing ruffles those feathers) is a complete reverse of her directing (which is intense).
Our very own Pretty
Woman-Mommy Rose.
Rose Tahimik
Accounting Clerk
Our secretive Rose keeps our financial records safely hidden from prying eyes, as she flits through the office like the invisible wind before disappearing into her isolated room, unnoticed. Occasionally, Mommy Rose emerges from isolation to seek the Partners’ signatures, heralding the arrival of that glorious moment—payday. Mommy Rose is also Arkeo’s self-appointed chef every Friday. She cooks as well as she computes.
Joe is feeling goofy as Simon Pegg
in “Shaun of the Dead.”
Joel Ruiz (Partner)
Finance Director
Resident director
Joe’s 6-foot frame not only allows him to have a better view in concerts, but also to occasionally make money as a commercial model. However, he is definitely a thousand times more comfortable behind the camera than in front of it. He is an award-winning director with several movies under his belt.
Don’t mess with me says
our own Fernando Poe Jr.
Elmer Igana
Messenger
His middle name might as well be “alert.” He sneaks up from behind you as you’re just about to look for him. His conscientiousness is commendable as he will not leave your sight until you have that damn thing signed.
Mildred goes dramatic citing her
favorite Maricel Soriano in “Babaeng
Hampaslupa” (The Wretched Woman)
Mildred Manano
Office Manager
Do not be deceived by this woman’s delicate and subdued demeanor. There is definitely nothing frail about this relentless and patient woman. She will get that appointment, hard-to-find address or whatever it is that you need this very minute.
Popo Diaz
Production Manager
Headcount. Disbursements. Liquidation. Those are Popo’s key words as Super Production Manager. However, his entire consciousness can be summed in two words: David Archuleta.
An expected turn: Dolphy loves
comedy king Dolphy.
Dolphy Mationg
Custodian
When everyone’s energies are all out after a long-hauled project, we turn to Mang Dolphy and make him laugh. His girlish high-pitched giggle sounds like an out-of-body experience for him, because he’s got that vibe that’s paternal more than cuddly.
Monster wants to be Ziyi Zhang
no matter what movie
or scandal she’s in.
Monster Jimenez (Partner)
Managing Director
Resident writer and producer
Monster refuses to stay in the assigned office space and churns out countless scripts on other people’s desks. Her work style might be described as subdued and steady; but the content of her original works are nothing but. Her ideas (and actually, friends) tend to gravitate towards crazy, outrageous and tragic characters.
