In the video, you can see the "Philippine Centennial" logo designed by Edgardo Santiago and slogan "Kalayaan, Kayamanan ng Bayan" by Joachim Medroso. The rising sun shines its rays over a red and royal blue striped ribbon, twirled to form the figure 100. Underneath are the three stars which are also in the Philippine flag. The slogan aptly states the reason for the nationhood--that indeed, freedom is the true wealth of the nation. The gold "Philippine Centennial" is reversed to frame all elements.

GMA Version




Shot wholly in high-definition (HD) digital video technology, the national anthem is slated to roll on the big screens of SM across the country. It will also be a part of GMA’s sign-on and sign-off messages marking the beginning and end of each day’s broadcast. Renowned film and television director Mark Reyes pitched the historical concept to GMA. “This will hopefully show and remind the younger generation what our heroes went through in history for our freedom. Being part of the network that has played a role in the scheme of history, I am edified to push in an artistic way the Filipinos’ passion for this country,” Reyes said. The GMA project team is composed of cinematographer Ding Achacoso (director of photography), Paul Ticzon (director), Vince Gealogo (co-director), Ingrid Navarro (producer) and cameramen Hanniel Aguilar, Javier Delgado and Paul Arrojado. The whole campaign was spearheaded by the creative team of GMA’s Program Support Department composed of Regie Bautista (VP), Dong Tan (associate creative director), Alex Almario (copy specialist), Dennis Tiu (art director), Hasmin Marable (senior project manager), and Minette Lopez (project manager). The 2010 Lupang Hinirang music video won the Bronze World Medal at the 2011 New York Festivals World’s Best TV Programs and Film Awards in the Music Video category and the Bronze Anvil from the 2011 Anvil Awards by the Public Relations Society of the Philippines (PRSP) in the Public Relations Tool category.

  • August 22, 2010-April 9, 2013 (launched at 12 Noon during Party Pilipinas, aired last August 22, 2010) This new theatrical version retells Philippine history through a succession of carefully-crafted and awe-inspiring reenactments of historical events from Lapu-Lapu’s victory over Magellan’s troops in the Battle of Mactan to the Filipinos’ peaceful revolt in pursuit of democracy in the 1986 People Power Revolution at EDSA. The new version, which was conceived from the strengthened corporate partnership between GMA Network and SM Cinemas, advances the narration of Philippine history from the standard versions released before. According to director Paul Ticzon, the team went through almost 10 months of meticulous research and preparation to shoot the vignettes. The roster of Kapuso stars who played Philippine historical icons include (in alphabetical order): Aljur Abrenica, Marvin Agustin, Victor Aliwalas, Alvin Aragon, Bea Binene, Iza Calzado, Bodie Cruz, Dingdong Dantes, Gabby and Geoff Eigenmann, Mark Anthony Fernandez, Carlo Gonzalez, Carl Guevarra, Richard Gutierrez, Dion Ignacio, Paolo Paraiso, Enzo Pineda, Rhian Ramos, Marian Rivera, Arthur Solinap, Mike Tan, JC Tiuseco, Dennis Trillo and TJ Trinidad. They are joined by Ogie Alcasid, Heart Evangelista, Eddie Garcia, Jaya Ramsey, Zoren Legaspi, German “Kuya Germs” Moreno, Regine Velasquez, Carmina Villaroel, Jillian Ward; plus News and Public Affairs’ pillars composed of Arnold Clavio, Mike Enriquez, Vicky Morales, Howie Severino, Jessica Soho, and Mel Tiangco. 
  • April 9, 2013-present (launched right after 24 Oras, aired last April 9, 2013) The 2013 version pays tribute to the heroes of today by drawing inspiration from the heroes of yesteryear's. It opens with an artist sketching a portrait of Lapu-Lapu, which seamlessly transforms into a colorful animation of the events that shaped Philippine history from the Battle of Mactan, which saw the defeat of the Spanish conquistadors in the hands of the natives, to the Cry of Pugad Lawin and the one portrayed by a firefighter who braves the raging flames of a burning building in order to save an infant. The opening transcript voiced by GMA Network President Jimmy Duavit: "Ang tugong gumuhit ng ating kasaysayan ng ating pagkatao ng ating lahi ay ang tugo ng kabayanihan. Mula sa mga bakas na iniwan ng ating mga ninuno, ating ipinagpapatuloy ang kanilang nasimulan sa mga paraan hinihingi ng anumang panahon. Taglay ang ipinamanang kagitingan at inspirasyon, dahil ang apoy nasumiklab ilang siglo na ang nakalilipas ay nabubuhay pa rin sa atin. Magpa-hanggang ngayon. Mga kababayan, ang Pambansang Awit ng Pilipinas." The main music of the national anthem begins as the heroes of the past are juxtaposed with modern heroes like a teacher who walks several miles to school daily to educate her pupils, a farmer who dutifully toils the land under the scorching heat of the sun to fend for his family, a traffic enforcer who continues to do his job despite being soaked in heavy rains, a doctor who compassionately attends to the medical needs of those in the barrios, overseas workers who endure being away from their loved ones in the hope of giving them a better future, an athlete who brings pride to his country, and the martyrdom of our national hero, Jose Rizal. at the end, GMA Network Center Facade and SM Mall of Asia Facade at the end of GMA National Anthem 2013. While at the end is the Kapuso Tune and the GMA Network Logo.
hope to see that soon.
