In celebration of their 42 nd anniversary, RD Pawnshop organized their first ever Jingle Dance Contest, a nationwide contest in search for the best dance groups who can make RD Pawnshop’s jingle the newest dance craze.
This is one of the many initiatives of RD Pawnshop to patronize their loyal clients and to entice and
encourage participation among customers. General Manager Alma Pascual wanted something different
that would be exciting for all audience types’ especially the young ones who are always active on
social media.
All entries were gathered all over the Philippines from participating groups who submitted a video of
their dance which was posted in the RD Pawnshop Facebook Page.
The contestants were judgedaccording to the rhythm, style, conceptualization, choreography and how they creatively executed the RD jingle in their dance routine. Forty percent (40%) of the score came from the likes, reactions and shares on facebook, while sixty percent (60 %) came from the judges’ scores in the seach for Top 5 Finalists.
Out of 34 dance video entries, 5 groups were chosen after it was prejudged by well-known performers
in Cebu namely Marxell Winkley Taratingan- judge for ABS-CBN Kapamilya, Mas Winner Ka! Dance
battles (2013-present), Marydelle Casacabel- “Dance floor princess” of ABS-CBN Cebu’s Saturday
morning show, Kapamilya, Mas Winner Ka! and Gilbert C. Gamolo-tv director, cinematographer,
commercial photographer and producer last June 1.
According to the judges, it was not easy to critique the entries. They all anticipate that the intensity of the performance is really different from when you see the actual performance.
