I always believe that Filipinos are undeniably the best in every aspect we can think of. Why? Because we work to be the best or to excel in everything we do. Through this logo that I designed, I wanted to empower not only to be proud as a Filipino but also to be honoured, glad and appreciative of the Filipino Psychology in terms of our values, customs, history, race and our connection towards our countrymen. The primary colors that I choose for this logo are same as whats on our National Philippine FlagYellow, red and blue. For the sun, on the upper part of the symbol of psyche, you can see that hands that our reaching out to each other. In my opinion, the two hands symbolizes Kapwa in terms our sense of pakikitungo, pakikisalamuha, pakikipagay and pakikisama; all in all, the hands embody our sense of wanting to be connected to others. I also chose yellow for kapwa psychology because it exemplifies yellow as uplifting, happiness, illuminating and it offers hope. Yellow is the best color to create enthusiasm for life and can awaken greater confidence and optimism, thats how I see Filipino Psychology and the yellow sun as an inter-related constant. You might also notice that there are two shadowed head beside the symbol of psychology. For the left side, the red symbolizes energy, passion and action. I would like to put emphasize of Sikholohiyang Pilipino as a psychology of re-awakening in terms of Filipino Psychology as a distinct and freed from the imposed and traditional psychology. Red is energizing; it excites the emotions and motivates us to take actions especially towards social awareness and involvement. On the other hand, the blue symbolizes peace and tranquillity. While looking closely, you will notice that there is a woman that her upper limbs seems to be extended upwards; there are also people that seems to be bowing down before her. This scenario that I choose simply portrays our history and the indigenous derivation of the experiences, ideas and cultural orientation even before the colonization of Spaniards. The woven crown-like piece of a plant symbolizes that Sikholohiyang Pilipino is alive and continually growing. Hence, Despite of the diversities that we have, all of these are integrated as one through psychology Sikholohiyang Pilipino to be exact.

BEST IN CREATIVE ADVERTISING AND CULTURAL SHORT
FILM IN FILIPINO PSYCHOLOGY I would like to nominate Tsinelas for this category because simply it depicts the our sense of collectivism as a Filipino. Aside showing the concept of Kapwa, the overall presentation of Tsinelas raises our kamalayan and ulirat.

FILM IN KAPWA PSYCHOLOGY I would like to nominate Tsinelas for this category because it exemplify that although you have inadequacy in any facet, the indigineous concept of hindi ako iba sa aking kapwa was really present. Through the role of Ahren who seemingly portrayed as a individual who is mentally challenged, the said film helps me understand more about Kapwa. As long as youre aware of the shared identity you have with others, the idea of kapwa is always with you.
