The silhouette of Alfred Vargas

Painting it with light to a beautiful drama is what all Filipino TV series lack but not until a dazzler found its way artistically to the human form of Alfred Vargas.
As the veteran actor Eddie Garcia enters the church in his priest character, the wonder of the place establishes a unique set up never before seen in other past Filipino TV series.
In fact, to be specific, all mini series on GMA have the same lighting, production set and smell even without smelling it physically.
In the action-fantasy drama Darna, starring Marian Rivera and Iwa Moto, gorgeous actor
Alfred Vargas plays the role of Gabriel. The scenes of him with Sir Eddie Garcia totally glow as the perfection of lighting reaches a new level of standard on our local boobtube.
Forgiveness if I have forgotten how amazing the special effects are.
This is the beginning, I strongly believe. The artistic shots of Gabriel in the church; his washed out face, physical human body sitting in one corner, looking outside through the window, mystery in the room, the smell by just watching it, ray of light to gather all the details of such magnificent picture on a primetime TV series.
I do not understand why the photographer of the show only gives this lovely work of art to the mentioned character in the story. Others deserve to have it likewise, I suppose.
I’m not talking about the word drama like the endless whining crybaby-like acting of actors Piolo Pascual, John Lloyd Cruz and all those male stars on ABS-CBN.
It is hilarious in my level of truth that a great number of Filipinos think that a real actor must have the skills to shed tears any moment in a so-called dramatic sequence.
The drama in this subject matter is all about the painting with light on television and in films.
I can tell that there is hope and that finally, the director of photography in the show Darna is putting the beautiful drama; particularly, in the scenes of Alfred Vargas inside the church of Eddie Garcia. Very nice.
Aside from that, the tall, dark and handsome player of Gabriel in Darna has improved his
acting skills after some years.
To the lighting director of Darna:
“YOU’RE THE MAN!”
