Actress Bianca Umali poured out her gratitude and emotions in a moving Facebook post, reflecting on her transformative experience in Encantadia Chronicles: Sang’gre and her portrayal of Terra.
In a deeply personal message, Bianca shared how the project became more than just another role—it became a journey of growth, collaboration, and creative discovery.
“Avisala Meiste, Terra…
Hindi ko alam kung saan magsisimula, pero alam kong kulang ang salitang salamat.
Ang bahaging ito ng Encantadia Chronicles: Sang’gre ay hindi lang basta eksena o yugto ng kwento para sa akin. Isa itong paglalakbay — bilang aktor, bilang tao, at bilang katuwang sa malikhaing proseso.”
She emphasized how meaningful it was for her to be trusted not only as a performer, but also as a creative collaborator in shaping Terra’s story.
“To be given the space to listen, learn, and collaborate with the team — to co-create and help shape such an important moment for Terra — means more to me than I can put into words.”
Bianca went on to acknowledge the many people who worked tirelessly behind the scenes, from writers and directors to crew members and technical staff.
“Maraming salamat sa creative at writing team, production, mga direktor, action at stunt team, at sa post-production team… Ramdam ko ang tiwala ninyo, ang pasensya, at ang bukas na loob sa bawat hakbang.”
She also expressed appreciation for being part of an environment that encouraged openness and respect.
“Salamat sa paglikha ng isang ligtas na espasyo kung saan ang boses ko ay hindi lamang pinakinggan, kundi isinama sa proseso.”
A special part of Bianca’s message was dedicated to the show’s stunt team, whose dedication helped bring Terra’s action scenes to life.
“Isang espesyal na pasasalamat at buong pagmamalaki para sa aming stunt team — #AKSYON Hindi biro ang sakripisyo, disiplina, at pusong ibinuhos ninyo sa bawat galaw at bawat sandali.”
She also thanked Jay Cruz for pushing her beyond her limits.
“Maraming salamat sa gabay, sa tapang na itulak ako lampas sa mga limitasyon ko, at sa paniniwalang kaya ko pa.”
Bianca did not forget to recognize the network and management that supported her journey.
“Maraming salamat din sa Sparkle at sa buong GMA sa patuloy na suporta at sa paglikha ng isang kapaligirang nagbibigay-halaga sa paglago, respeto, at tunay na pagtutulungan.”
Her words reflected not only gratitude, but also pride in being part of a system that nurtures artists holistically.
Toward the end of her post, Bianca summed up what the experience truly meant to her — an effort built on shared purpose, unity, and love.
“Ang sandaling ito para kay Terra ay binuo nang may malinaw na layunin, sama-samang lakas, at napakaraming pagmamahal.”
She closed her message with a heartfelt dedication to her character, the franchise, and its loyal supporters.
“Para kay Terra.
PARA SA ENCANTADIA!
at para sa inyo…
Avisala Eshma, mga Encantadiks.”
