ASUS, one of the leading makers of computer and phone hardware and electronics, arrived in Cebu City to conduct a 2-day mobile photography master class last February 2-3, 2019. The ASUS PixelMaster Master Class was named by the influence of its technology installed in ZenFone’s cameras—the PixelMaster. With this innovative technology, ASUS ZenFone aimed to raise the bar for mobile photography while teaming up with well-known photographers in the country.

The first day of the PixelMaster Master Class was held at Soho Park at Cebu IT Park. Nicco Valenzuela opened the discussion about outdoor photography and introduced the possibilities of using a ZenFone smartphone to capture amazing photos. He also included the talks on the Basic Manual Camera Settings (or Pro Mode) where users can adjust shutter speed, ISO, Manual Focus, White Balance, and Exposure Value. Emphasizing on ZenFone smartphones with this feature, like the ZenFone 5 and the latest model ZenFone Max Pro M2.

After the discussion, mentees traveled to the castle-like Monastery of the Holy Eucharist or commonly known as the Simala Shrine in Sibonga, Cebu.

Very critical to the scope of the mobile photography workshop, the Simala Shrine was chosen as the first stop for the PixelMaster Photo Walk because of its architectural location. For almost an hour, mentees were able to capture their photos and head on to its next destination, the Temple of Leah in Busay.

Day One of the ASUS ZenFone PixelMaster Master Class ended with the mentor’s critic session as PixelMaster Nicco Valenzuela gave feedback to all submitted photos.

Day Two: Workshop with the Cebu Mobile Shutterbugs at SM Seaside City Cebu

The Cebu Mobile Shutterbugs, a Cebu-based organization of mobile photography enthusiasts, teamed up with ASUS Philippines as one of its major sponsors in celebration of its 2nd anniversary. A short course mobile photography workshop was held last February 3, 2019, at the Cube Wing, SM Seaside City Cebu.
