Per ardua ad astra

EditorTVCs, News Make a Comment

Colenso and Goodoil’s Joel Kefali have shot a new spot for Samsung, starring NZ’s only Olympic BMX competitor, Sarah Walker, who won Silver at London in 2012.

Walker missed out on selection for last year’s Rio Olympics – due to injury. And this spot, with its spectacular imagery, graphically describes just how injury-prone BMX athletes can be.

It also demonstrates the inspiration that can be achieved when a competitor faces adversity.

“If you don’t fail, you’re not really pushing the boundaries,” Walker says.
