About the Logo
As you can see in the official logo of Aktor, it only used three colors: black for “Ako”, gray for “t r”, and rose pink for “LEAGUE OF FILIPINO ACTORS”. Based on the logo’s appearance, the word “Ako” that was highlighted in black color was represented by the members of the association.
Cause of Formation
Aktor came after the Film Development Council of the Philippines and the Department of Labor and Employment issued Joint Memorandum Circular No. 001 Series of 2020 as FDCP and DOLE issued guidelines on governing the working conditions as well as the occupational safety and health of workers in the audio-visual production.
The members of the association had made it clear that they’re unanimous in voicing out their side regarding the said issue. Although it was impossible for these artists to put their views aside even if others say that they’re just artists.
