Paralympics 'We're The Superhumans'
Award: Yellow Pencil
Yellow Pencil / Film Advertising Crafts / Use of Music for Film Advertising / 2017
In ‘Yes I Can’ (originally performed by Sammy Davis Jr), we found a track that communicated the persistence, commitment, and determination embodied by each and every Paralympic athlete. The wildly adventurous re-record that followed involved assembling a band of para-musicians from across the globe, and enrolling Guy Farley to re-arrange our new version. We then supervised the recording process at Abbey Road and Battersea Park Studios. The inspiring performers seen in the film are the only musicians involved in the recording.
