Let’s raise the Philippine flag as we get to know each of them (not literally obviously haha) and the alpha we gathered from the people behind these projects themselves.

1. ISEKAI META

Isekai Meta is a PFP NFT project that revolves around a vision to build a brand that taps into the human need to connect with others through experiences.

The project intends to spark a meta of storytelling through Web3 and NFTs. Sayres led the project with his co-founders Waps, Chev, and Frankied.

Moreover, with past experiences working for Dreamworks, Disney, and Warner Bros., the head artist Chev leads the art department of Studio Sekai, and is partnered with Studio 9 Lives.

Besides that, the Aswang Tribe also has an initiative called the Aswang Art Grant. This program aims to support talent and encourage creativity, originality, and innovation via a series of open calls in their community. Their first open call for projects was held on June 22, 2022.

They just released their play-to-earn beta version of the game for all players who have created an account before January 31, 2023.
