MANILA, PHILIPPINES — Defying all odds and proving that excellence knows no limits, six Filipino athletes have secured their places in the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games. As a tribute to these inspiring para-athletes, rezonate released a reel to recognize their monumental achievements.
The New York-based motion studio celebrates the athletes by capturing the athletic prowess of each representative. From flying arrows and javelins to dives into the deep waters, the animation beams with life, using dynamic movement and the Philippine flag colors to exhibit the para-athletes’ strength and determination.
The six Paralympians were featured in the following order:
• Agustina Bantiloc – Para Archery
• Jerrold Mangliwan – Para Athletic: Wheelchair Racing
• Angel Otom – Para Swimming
• Ernie Gawilan – Para Swimming
• Cendy Asusano – Para Athletics: Javelin Throw
• Allain Ganapin – Para Taekwondo
Rezonate aims to further advocate for inclusivity through the reel — not only in the realm of sports but also in universal design. Mich Gasper, rezonate’s Creative Marketing Manager, expressed that the creative firm wants to “help make inclusion the norm” by ensuring the accessibility of spaces and services for everyone regardless of ability.
Rezonate wrote on social media, “The world may define human limits by our forms, but our Filipino Para-Athletes defy those limits and prove them wrong. They show us that victory is measured by heart, not ability. Here’s to our Filipino Para-Athletes! #MabuhayAngParaAtletangPilipino.”
The Paris 2024 Paralympic Games will run from August 28 to September 08.
