Hi, you will need to either dump the shape parameters and orientation of each particle or first load a data file and then use a Load Trajectory Modifier to load the particle trajectories.

Please also see this page of the OVITO user manual, which describes how to dump particle shapes and orientations. The doc page of OVITO’s dump file reader also contains further information related to this topic.
