Pikyaw is a 2014 Filipino animated adventure film produced by Multimedia Arts & Graphics Ensemble (MAGE), Inc. and directed by Arnold Fuentes,^[1] PIKYAW was the first feature-length animated film dubbed in Hiligaynon and created by artists from Iloilo City, Iloilo,^[2] and the first film produced by MAGE, Inc. Pikyaw follows a group of children: Abet, Tyrone, and Marco who finds themselves in a parallel universe that is the subject of revenge by Albion, a creature who lived in Calixto since he was a child. The film was written by Mahnnie Tolentino, and featured music by artists from Think Logic Records, who are all Ilonggo bands. Its executive producers were Mahnnie Tolentino(MAGE Inc.), Ralph Peñalosa(TL Records) and Seth dA. Nono(UI-PHINMA).

MAGE, Inc., which produced events that focuses on Ilonggo artists development, particularly on comic book illustration, cosplay, photography, and animation, approached the University of Iloilo - PHINMA to co-produce an animated feature that would eventually become the first feature-length Ilonggo animated film. Mahnnie Tolentino wrote an early story treatment which was later discarded for being too edgy and mature. After several revisions focusing on a more child-friendly theme, MAGE, Inc., then consisting of a relatively small number of members, together with select students from the University of Iloilo - PHINMA, produced the film under minor financial constraints.

Pikyaw was screened at SM City Iloilo and went on to earn around PhP100,000 in three(3) days, from February 26–28, 2014.
