Inside the Gifted Workroom, director Tili, scriptwriter Alfie, animator Maddie, and cinematographer Javi came together for a mission. Surrounded by props, crafts, and gadgets that inspired their imagination, they collaborated to create their first short animated film, Promil Gifted Kids in Action - a film made for Gifted Kids, by Gifted Kids.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">Guided by mentors such as award-winning director Tonet Jadaone, international children&#x27;s book illustrator Joemike Tejido, and screenwriter Cha Esguerra, the young creators learned the fundamentals of filmmaking. They explored scriptwriting, directing, animation, and the techniques used in capturing motion and objects on camera.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">Parents emphasize the importance of allowing children to explore and develop their Gifted Brains. Many mothers choose Promil because it helps support four key brain developmental milestones, along with proper diet, daily activities, and rest.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">Focus enhances attention and concentration. Memory strengthens learning and recall. Language builds communication and self-expression. Problem-solving fosters creativity and helps children find solutions independently.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><div style="line-height:1"><strong>Back in the Gifted Workroom</strong></div><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">Their animated film was beginning to take shape, and the next stage involved was adding sound. Inside the recording studio of the Gifted Workroom, the children discovered everyday items - pepper and salt shakers, utensils, and umbrellas - used to create sound effects. In filmmaking, this process is called Foley.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">Gifted mom Georgina Wilson shared, &quot;Foley is sound effects that are recreated for movies. What an exceptional activity for Gifted Kids.&quot;</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">The children spent the day as Foley artists, experimenting with props to produce sounds for their film. They stomped their feet to mimic running, chopped vegetables to imitate moving rocks, and tested a variety of other noises. It appeared to be a play, yet each moment was a lesson in how sound breathes life into a story and makes every scene more vivid.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">The next step was giving the characters their voices. The children met with Rhys Austin, a professional voice actor with more than 200 commercials to his name, who demonstrated how to bring animated characters to life. Austin shared tips on using tone, emotion, and clarity to create engaging and expressive performances. The session proved both enjoyable and educational for the young creators.</p><div style="line-height:1"><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:633px;display:block"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/176526960379020251010091048_recording (1).webp" style="width:633px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Photo source: <a href="http://tiktok.com/@/video/7499787513146412295?_r=1&amp;_d=secCgYIASAHKAESPgo8H2l4SlEE%2F3RkrNcp8xPhrbth9P18tWxR6iZn0INQk%2Bpk1Bvh3r3suRhhe%2Bb%2FQeLrhSVHEXUkh6NGG%2BsiGgA%3D&amp;u_code=e8j09lbbgfb3a6&amp;share_item_id=7499787513146412295×tamp=1746180488&amp;utm_campaign=client_share&amp;utm_source=short_fallback&amp;share_app_id=1233" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Promil 3+ TikTok</a> </span></span></span></div><div style="line-height:1"><strong>Role of mothers in nurturing Gifted Kids</strong></div><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">While the Gifted Kids filmed, their mothers reflected on the moments they first recognized their kids&#x27; unique abilities and discussed how they nurture those gifts. Each mother also encouraged other parents to remain present and give children the freedom to explore.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">&quot;I realized that Maddie is exceptional when she started drawing smileys at one year old,&quot; shared Klarizz de Leon.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">&quot;Tili is very good at sorting. Everything is organized by colors, shapes, or boxes. She recognized this pattern at a very young age,&quot; noted Solenn Heussaff-Bolzico.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">&quot;Alfie loves creating stories, which can be seen in the animated film,&quot; added Georgina Wilson-Burnand.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">&quot;When I taught Javi something once, he was able to remember it completely,&quot; said Eunice Perez-Trajano.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">The mothers also shared how they continue to support their children&#x27;s growth. Wilson-Burnand feels fortunate to be a mom. &quot;All the kids are gifted, and it is our responsibility to bring out those gifts and celebrate their milestones.&quot;</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">For Perez-Trajano it is important to nurture Gifted Kids, while De Leon encouraged parents to give their kids freedom to create.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">&quot;Parenting should not be about pressure. Children reveal their giftedness at different stages. What matters most is being present and having a partner like Promil to support their nutrition. Promil provides four key brain nutrients that aid these milestones,&quot; shared Heussaff-Bolzico.</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">She also added, &quot; Promil contains four brain nutrients that enhance focus, memory, language, and problem-solving. It is a way to support children&#x27;s gifts while they continue to explore, learn, and create.&quot;</p><div style="line-height:1"> </div><p style="line-height:1">Promil supports children&#x27;s Gifted Brains through nutrients that promote brain and body development, along with proper diet, daily activities, and rest.
