Yasser Marta pointed out on Wednesday, August 24, that he is trying to be an adaptable young artist, not giving much thought to his career path.
Marta learned such a lesson during the COVID-19 pandemic when productions were scarce. Besides patience, he needed to adapt to the current situation.
“Speaking from experience din, yung patience, lalo noong pandemic, isa iyon sa pinakamahalaga na kailangan nating matutunan eh. Pero besides doon sa patience, ‘yung kailangan nating mag-adapt para mag-survive ng ilang b’wan o taon na walang binibigay na trabaho.
“Pero kailangan mong isipin kung ano ‘yung kailangan mong bago na maio-offer sa mga tao. Kailangan mong mag-aral, kailangan mong magre-invent ng sarili mo,” he explained during the virtual media conference of What We Could Be, an upcoming Kapuso series set to air on August 29.
The artist added, “Kailangan nating mag-adapt pero kailangan din nating mag-intay sa tamang biyaya na ibibigay sa atin.”
Furthermore, Marta stressed that he only focuses on his current project, just like what he did to his character in What We Could Be.
“Ako, pagdating sa career path, kung ano lang naman ang binigay na role, ‘yun ang pinghahandaan ko.
“Itong si Lucas, noong nabasa ko ang script, meron siyang mga topless, tapos kailangan kong maging buff, so nag-gym ako para sa role na ito. ‘Yung photos, siguro bonus na lang iyon eh, noong nag-photoshoot.”
The series stars Miguel Tanfelix and Ysabel Ortega. It will replace the recently-concluded Bolera.
