Isang makabagong paraan ng pagpapakilala ng brand ang inilunsad ng local clothing brand na Bench noong July 25, sa Center Stage cinema ng SM Mall of Asia, sa Pasay City.

Anim sa binabalak na 25 short films ang ipinakita ng nasabing brand sa ginanap na red carpet premiere ng Benchingko Films.

Ito raw ay isa lamang sa mga plano para sa selebrasyon ng ika-25 years na anibersaryo ng Bench.

Ayon sa Bench founder and CEO na si Ben Chan, ginawa nila ang mga short film dahil: “We wanted to do something different.

“As always, Bench gives something new, something in different medium that we haven’t done.

“So, we thought of films. We thought that it’s a good way to promote the brand online.”

Sa press release para sa event, isinaad din ng may-ari ng clothing brand na naniniwala siyang: “Movies are the backbone of Pinoy Pop Culture. "

Kahit papaano ay naging bahagi na ng Pinoy Pop Culture ang kanilang brand. Sa 25 na taon, natutunan daw ni Ben na: “Fashion keeps changing. Fashion is always evolving.

“Bench lasted this long because we figured out how to ride the waves of change.

“But movies and films are meant to last longer than fashion. Some are made to last forever.

“They make the foundation of a culture. The stay in people's minds and hearts. They become classics.

“ It's the 25th anniversary of Bench, and this year we wanted to make something truly classic and ageless. So, we made these films.”

Ang event na ito pinangunahan ng mga aktor na sina Piolo Pascual, Lovi Poe, at Bella Flores, at pati na ni Ormoc Representative Lucy Torres-Gomez.

Maliban sa batikang kontrabidang si Bella, lahat ay mga endorser ng nasabing brand na tampok sa ipinalabas na mga short film.

Bukod sa kanila, namataan din sa okasyon ang ilan pang celebrity endorsers: Diether Ocampo, Shaina Magdayao, Enchong Dee, Julia Montes, at ang dating magkasintahan na sina Melai Cantiveros at Jason Francisco.
