GMA-7’s Philippine National Anthem Video World Premiere
This new theatrical version retells Philippine History through a succession of carefully-crafted and awe-inspiring reenactments of historical events from Lapu-Lapu’s victory over Magellan’s troops in the Battle of Mactan to the Filipinos’ peaceful revolt in pursuit of democracy in the 1986 People Power Revolution at EDSA.
The new version, which was conceived from the strengthened corporate partnership between GMA Network and SM Cinemas, advances the narration of Philippine history from the standard versions released before.
This project was done in close coordination with the National Historical Commission of the Philippines, who recognized the Network’s efforts to instill nationalism and patriotism among the Filipino people.
Shot wholly in high-definition (HD) digital video technology, the national anthem is slated to roll on the big screens of SM across the country. It will also be a part of GMA’s sign-on and sign-off messages marking the beginning and end of each day’s broadcast.
The video had its world premiere minutes ago at the opening of Party Pilipinas.
