Star Magic

ABS-CBN Center for Communication Arts, Inc., doing business as Star Magic (formerly known as ABS-CBN Talent Center), is the training and management subsidiary of ABS-CBN Corporation. It was designed to assist young talent in the Philippines. Star Magic talents undergo training in acting, personality development and physical enhancement before being cast in the television shows of ABS-CBN and the film outfits of various film production companies in the Philippines such as Star Cinema, Regal Entertainment, Viva Films, and Black Sheep Productions, as well as other film projects in the country, commercial projects and corporate events. In April 1992, Freddie Garcia, then ABS-CBN executive vice president and general manager, and Johnny Manahan, then program director, formed the idea of creating a stable of new stars exclusively for the network. On June 25, 2011, the company celebrated its 19th anniversary on ASAP Rocks. It also launched the new website and the new music video with the current artists of the company. In 2019, Star Magic hosted a Mobile Legends: Bang Bang event with 4 teams of celebrities. In 2020, following the expiration and subsequent denial of ABS-CBN’s  franchise, Manahan and Mariole Alberto stepped down, with Manahan moving to Brightlight Production and later to GMA Artist Center. Laurenti Dyogi was named the new head which took effect on January 1, 2021. In 2021, Star Magic announced during its Black Pen Day Signing that they will be launching Star Magic Records, a sub label under ABS-CBN Music; Star Magic Studio, which will create content for Star Magic artists; and Star Magic Digital Artist Agency, as well as relaunching ABS-CBN’s theatre arm Teatro Kapamilya.
