Quezon Merch & Zine

Quezon is the third film in Jerrold Tarog's Bayaniverse, starring Jericho Rosales. A landmark in Philippine cinema — and a project that deserved more than just a poster.

We were brought in by Jericho Rosales to design and produce the official merchandise line for the film's release. Shirts, mugs, pins, tote bags — and two pieces we're especially proud of: a limited edition zine and postcard series.

The zine was built around the people who made the film look the way it does. We worked with the imagemakers behind Quezon — cinematographers and photographers Pong Ignacio, Raf Evangelista, Trixie Vertera, Wence Trajano, and Karen de la Fuente — to bring their work into print. Not just merch. A way to commemorate the artistry behind the film.

The collection was sold at select screenings, with a notable run during the special screening at the Met Theater. Reception was strong both online and on the ground — and as far as we know, it's the first zine and postcard series of its kind released alongside a nationwide Filipino film.
