Mexican Filmmaker as Cinematographer of “Bad Romance”

With years of experience working in the camera department of successful movies like “Titanic,” “From Dusk Till Dawn,” and “DOA,” Mexican filmmaker Daniel Anaya is announced today to be the Director of Photography of a new independent film starring one of the hottest Filipina actresses in the Philippines today, Bangs Garcia. The film is entitled “Bad Romance.”

Multi-awarded screenwriter Ricky Lee is the creative consultant of the film written by Irvin Malcolm and Ian del Carmen. “Bad Romance” will be shot in the Philippines by end of this month.

Anaya, who is based in the US, has worked with successful film directors like James Cameron and Quentin Tarantino. He has worked behind the camera in over 20 films and TV shows. He was also the Director of Photography of the famous TV movie, “Illusions.”

The film “Bad Romance” is a parody of romantic comedies which turn into an action-packed suspense thriller. Anaya’s years of experience with camera and lighting will help the production team portray the story of love and revenge cinematically.

Mercedes Cabral is playing the lead role for the first time in this film. Anaya is hopeful of recreating the magic of “Titanic” and “DOA” with his immense talent and camera skills. The film will be directed by Filipino filmmaker Ian del Carmen.
