4TH PHILIPPINE INTERNATIONAL PYROMUSICAL COMPETITION - Bringing it home by Team Philippines

For the competitors, they had to be the best among the rest.
For the exhibition team Platinum Fireworks, it was now or never.

With the previous year incident, they are out to show the world and make proud every single Filipino by giving out their best! With a good weather and darkness of night due to the earth hour, the countdown to awesomeness started!

Dishing out popular music such as Psy's Gangnam style and Rihanna's We Found Love, "proud to be Filipino song" of Piliin mo ang Pilipinas, to a remix of the classic Nessun Dorma (which I recognized due to my love for Sum of all Fears!) and ending out the night with a climactic O Fortuna, it showed that they were back stronger than ever and that they are here to impress!

As you would expect from the exhibition team, they definitely made the brightest show on Earth! If they can load the tables and chairs with fireworks, they would have (of course, that won't be safe! Safety is a top priority for this event). Aside from their usual fireworks loaded on the breakwater, on top of SM Mall of Asia, water level fireworks, they have added more fireworks in the VIP area which pretty sure would have pumped up the crowd on the said area (as seen from the pictures on the Pyromusical official fan page, this was called Irdieden or Maltese Wheel -- the Malta Fireworks team who helped out in the exhibition---You can see this on the video at 11 minutes and 30 seconds)

Almost everyone from my friends, especially Jon Bautista, stated "Hindi ko na alam kung san titingin dahil ang daming fireworks!" (I don't know where to look! There is so much fireworks to see!)

As for Arwin Palac, it was a new experience for him seeing a pyromusical fireworks display. He's seen a lot of fireworks display and this is way different from what he expected. Timing and precision is the key, one mistake and there's no turning back.

Personally, the highlight for the exhibition is that it was near flawless (what I only noticed that didn't go as planned were the fireworks mounted on the flag poles). Seeing 4 live exhibitions from Platinum Fireworks, they have already proven they can assemble an epic soundtrack, that they can light up the whole place and they can connect with the emotions of the viewers wherever you were in venue.

Again, the heroes for this show are the people who helped out setup everything from Day 1, which we

collectively call as "the boys".

Platinum Fireworks waited for a year to prove a point...It was definitely worth the wait!

As we have stated, To God be the glory!!

Video

What we tried to do accomplish with this video is give you a view of the other fireworks while everything was being fired from the barge. So if you see small windows on the corners, that means what your seeing is happening at the same time in different locations
