MINSAN FEST CELEBRATES FILIPINO MUSIC ARTISTRY

It is what Minsan Fest (stylized as minsan fest) offers to the public and music enthusiasts. Behind it is minsan studio, an independent video production company that has created shows and is venturing into music festivals.

The minsan fest is happening this May 17 at the Quezon Memorial Circle.

The STAR had a chat with Jason Conanan, head of minsan studio, who gave some bits and pieces on how minsan fest came about.

"We're mainly a video and events production company. So, we produce events for corporate clients or other artists," said he, who works extensively in the music industry.

Jason is manager of Reese Lansangan and has worked as a sound engineer for Up Dharma Down and Toneejay. He was part of Coke Studio Season 1 and has a separate business that does audio post-production for films.

This has allowed him and his studio to build "a network of artists who are friends, I would say, and because of that we're able to work with these artists on a different level," added he.

From there, they have created a bond and trust in each other.
