JULIET NGO FIEL

I believe many in our clan are into politics. In the Visayas Region, there are a good number of them: Gwen, Byron and Pablo Fiel Garcia of Cebu; Benjamin Fiel Tugonon, who passed away recently, was a consistent topnotcher as a councilor and was the former vice mayor of Ormoc (Thanks to Attorney Oscar Fiel for the info). My lolo Bonifacio Fiel, the cousin of my Lolo Feliciano, was a vice-mayor of Kiblawan, Davao del Sur as a result of the 1980 election. He died as a soldier when I was still at a very young age. Here in Davao, a good number of our relatives also threw their hat in the political arena. Some won, some didn’t.





In my effort to really look for more relatives to be featured in our Fiel Clan Blog, my mouse directed me to the present mayor of Looc, Romblon. She is Juliet Ngo Fiel. She is an alumna of Looc National High School in Romblon.




According to http://politikahan.com/tablas2007.html she gathered a total vote of 5,089 last elections which paved way for her to lead the town of Looc, which is located in a well-protected bay serving as rich-fishing ground for the people. Mayor Juliet Ngo Fiel maintain the successful fish sanctuary in Looc Bay.





The June 26, 2008 issue of Abante reported : “Dahil napalilibutan ng dagat, pangingisda at pagtatanim ang pangunahing hanapbuhay ng mga ‘Loocans’ at sa tulong at pagsisikap ng kanilang alkaldeng si Mayor Juliet Ngo Fiel, unti-unting napapansin ang Looc na sentro na ngayon ng bagsakan ng sari-saring produktong agrikultural mula sa mga lugar na malapit dito.”



Here's the world famous Fish Sanctuary in Looc, Romblon located in Looc Bay, one of the world's most beautiful bays. The fish sanctuary is home to hundreds of beautiful fish species as well as a rich collection of corals and giant clams. It is project of the municipal government of Looc, Romblon now under Mayor Juliet Ngo Fiel.



Hehe, I should visit this place and try snorkeling. So, to all Fiel out there, if you look for tourist destinations in the next holidays, try Looc, Romblon. And of course, do not forget to make a courtesy call sa ating Mayor, si Hon. Juliet Ngo Fiel.

GIOVANNI FIEL NAKPIL

Hold your breath, this is a very interesting discovery! This will really make us all proud!

I chanced to browse website firstacademy.net, and this site has good news for us all Fiel clan! It cited several Filipinos who made waves in their contribution to making high-quality movies for global distribution.

AND ONE OF THEM HAPENS TO BE...

"Giovanni Fiel Nakpil, worked for George Lucas' "Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones" and built and animated some characters for "Van Helsing". He also worked on "Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl."

Source: http://www.firstacademy.net/art-abs.html

The website www.senecac.on.ca/ called him "Master of Movie Mayhem."



Giovanni Fiel Nakpil is working as a 3D Modeler for Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) — the award-winning visual effects company owned by Star Wars creator George Lucas. Gio continues to add blockbusters to his already impressive resumé. They include the latest Pirates of the Caribbean movie, the final chapter of the Star Wars saga and War of the Worlds.

Giovanni’s love of drawing and Computer Generated Imagery (CGI) led him to Seneca’s Digital Media Technical Production program, which prepares students for careers in the computer graphics and digital media industries.

The first ILM project he worked on as a 3D Modeler was Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones.Today, his film credits include Van Helsing, Dreamcatcher, Matrix Revolutions and both Pirates of The Caribbean films.

“I never would have dreamed that I would be working for ILM,” says the 30-year-old Star Wars fan. He was recruited to ILM after working for animation companies in Toronto and Texas.

His Seneca training has allowed him to take on greater challenges with each film, culminating with a chance to work on a Steven Spielberg production.

“Being able to work on War of the Worlds was like winning the lottery.”

Giovanni created the giant laserblasting alien machines in War of the Worlds — considered to be a major character in the film — and the alien probe that threatens Tom Cruise.

Yon palang kinatatakitan nating mga animations, gawa ng isang kapamilya natin.

Anong say nyo?

His aunt, Corito Fiel of Philippine Daily Inquirer, wrote:

"CAUGHT my nephew in Van Helsing and though Giovanni Fiel Nakpil was somewhere lost in the fast-moving after-film credits.Felt his unseen yet strong, sure hand in all its fire-breathing glory as Dracula in his climactic battle with Hugh Jackman as the Demon Slayer, grandly morphs into the frighteningly hideous HellBeast."
