Miss Teen Earth Phl, Little Miss Earth Phl launched

MANILA, Philippines - The search is on for young Filipina beauties with a purpose. Miss Teen Earth Philippines and Little Miss Earth Philippines will hold a nationwide search for girls aged four to 17 with the aim to promote environmental awareness and foster change. Pre-screening begins this February nationwide and the grand pageant night will happen on May 27 at SM MOA Arena. Project Headshot Clinic and Climate Change Commission step in to strengthen the advocacy through a partnership and a headshot petition campaign called Project Earth.

Project Earth is a digital campaign that utilizes headshots as a way to promote the advocacy. Influential individuals from various industries are chosen to participate in this headshot clinic. These Project Earth ambassadors will be posting their digitized profile photos in their social media accounts. Alessandra de Rossi, Alex Gonzaga, Dolly Ann Carvajal, IC Mendoza, Tessa Prieto-Valdez, Tim Yap, Rajo Laurel, Francis Libiran, Mayor Pie Alvarez of San Vicente Palawan, Sec. Mary Ann Lucille Sering of Climate Change Commission, Elmo Magalona, Maxene Magalona, Robby Carmona, Suki Salvador, Vince Uy are just some of the selected few. From giving up meat to refraining from littering, each of these headshot recipients will voice out how they can help inspire every earth ambassador in all of us — one small act at a time.

The digital movement is just a part of the grand plans of Miss Teen Earth Philippines and Little Miss Earth Philippines in terms of the promotion of earth’s preservation. Vas Bismark, president of Captured Dream Productions and the pageants’ trademark owner, says that “Miss Teen Earth Philippines and Little Miss Earth Philippines are pageants with a heart.” He is positive that through the pageant and campaign, the advocacy that he believes in will inspire more people to not only listen and take notice but also do something about it.

Project Headshot Clinic is a brainchild of photographer Niccolo Cosme. The concept behind it is the marriage of headshots and advertising, with the belief that uploading profile photos under one theme is an effective way of piquing the curiosity of people.
