In 2019, Lima will gather all America’s cultures during the biggest sporting event in the continent, which will take place in our country. Therefore, tomorrow the Lima 2019 organization will launch a campaign about the importance of the Pan American and Parapan American Games. It will encourage everyone to join the event that will put Peru under the spotlight: “Let’s all play”.
The slogan of this campaign will be: “Let’s all play”; it means that everyone should participate in this sports celebration. All cultures of the Americas will play in Peru, including athletes and participating countries. Volunteers will also participate; they are the heart of Lima 2019. Also, parents will participate taking their children to watch competitions, as well as ordinary people warmly welcoming 40 delegations arriving to Lima. We will all be rooting for Peru. We need that all Peruvians get involved in the Games, from purchasing a ticket, helping visitants, respecting the rules and becoming the best hosts: All Peruvians play, the Americas play.
The objective is sharing the dates and the importance of the Pan American and Parapan American Games for our society. Our culture will also be promoted through sports values, informing about the Games legacy for our country. Click here https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wBZWkMSO3bI to watch the spot.
Meeting of cultures
The main idea of this campaign is developed through the representations of the cultures of the Americas, united to compete, celebrate the greatness and identity of our continent, and show the whole world that in Lima 2019 we invite everybody: “Let’s all play”. This seeks to promote the full identification of all people with Lima 2019 Games.
3D Animation
It should be noted that the campaign will have one-resource identity: 3D animation. Said resource will allow to show the message massively and cinematographically in line with this sporting mega-event.
It will also enable an imaginary journey from the past to the present, bringing the concept of cultures united to the present.
In this regard, we will be motivated proud to be the Games host country. This campaign will awaken our interest to obtain more information about the most important multi-sports event of the Americas. It will also motivate the affinity with Lima 2019 and Milco, the official mascot of Lima 2019.
