Teacher wins big at BJ Pascual's vivo V50 Masterclass

 


MANILA, PHILIPPINES – In a crowd buzzing with energy and creativity at BJ Pascual’s exclusive photography masterclass at One Ayala, one attendee walked away with more than just knowledge and inspiration. He left with a new vision, a game-changing device, and a massive 50% discount on the vivo V50.

Meet Johann Rabino, a passionate educator and school paper mentor whose dedication to storytelling has always gone beyond the classroom walls.

A proud vivo user for nearly five years, Johann’s eyes lit up when his name was called for the exclusive 50% V50 discount. It was a reward, he says, that felt like destiny.


A Portrait of Loyalty

Johann, a school paper adviser and photography hobbyist, has been a vivo loyalist for years. When asked what made him stay with the brand, his answer was simple yet powerful: consistency and reliability.

“Yung battery life, yung app na hindi nagla-lag, consistent talaga. As a teacher, kailangan ko ng phone na hindi ako bibiguin. Kaya dito ako nag-stay,” he shared.

His active engagement on vivo's Facebook page showcased not only his loyalty but also his creative flair. That thoughtful entry helped secure his spot as the exclusive 50% discount winner. It was a testament to how vivo celebrates and uplifts its passionate community.

Known in his school as the go-to guy for event photos, Johann’s love for photography goes beyond hobby. It’s a tool for connection, creativity, and education. He regularly contributes to his school’s publication, seamlessly blending visuals with compelling narratives.

“Sabi nga nila, ako lagi ang tinatawag pag may pictorial. I combine photography and writing para mas impactful. Kaya sobrang meaningful ng experience na ‘to.”

Attending BJ Pascual’s masterclass reignited Johann’s passion for photography, especially when he discovered the advanced bokeh capabilities of the vivo V50.

“Akala ko dati isang type lang ng bokeh. Pero ngayon ko lang nalaman na ang dami palang variations. Ang daming possibilities. Nakaka-inspire,” he said beaming.

He was especially struck by the idea that what once required bulky, expensive camera gear is now possible with a phone. “Yung ZEISS lenses, mahal talaga 'yun. Yung B-Speed, nasa Php 200,000 pataas. Pero andito na lahat sa vivo V50. Wala ka nang kailangan dalhin na mabigat. Kaya sobrang amazed talaga ako.”

Now, Johann plans to pass on this new knowledge to his students by making them a subject and having mini-lessons, encouraging them to explore storytelling through the lens of mobile photography.
