Pressure nga ba kay Direk Chad Vidanes ang apelyido niya bilang anak siya ni ABS-CBN Chief Operating Officer Cory Vidanes at dating It’s Showtime director na si Bobet Vidanes.
Napangiti muna ang direktor ng series na “He’s Into Her” bago niya ito sinagot.
“Yes hindi mawawala ‘yun na I carry the name of my parents and it’s a pressure that I use to in a good way. I push myself to grow.
“Pero ‘yun nga like I always tell them, like I’m super proud of my parents of what they have done in this industry. But besides that I actually make a name of my own. I don’t want to be known as the son of Cory Vidanes and Bobet Vidanes. I just want to have my own identity.
“And to be honest, it was also the reason I started with Star Cinema kasi I wanted to make a start, a fresh start because even if Star Cinema is a part of ABS (CBN), it’s still a different medium, different domain that my mom and my dad weren’t directly part of.
“The people in Star Cinema are friends of, lahat naman ng tao sa ABS CBN magkakaibigan at magkakapamilya and it’s still in a way a different world inside.”
Sa solo virtual interview ni Direk Chad ay nabanggit niyang siya ay naging second assistant director ng mga pelikulang “My Ex and Why’s”, “Seven Sundays”, “Unexpectedly Yours” at “Exes Baggage.”
Nabanggit pa na mas type niyang mag-direk ng pelikula at drama series kumpara sa live shows na no room for mistakes, unlike sa una na puwedeng i-edit o gamutin.
At bilang anak ng isa sa may pinakamataas na posisyon sa ABS-CBN ay ano ang payo kay direk Chad ng mommy Cory.
“She taught me to always be humble, because no matter how good you get at what you do, there will always be room to learn to get better,” pahayag ng batang direktor.
