Unfolding “To His Glory” and the first film of the project
February 16, 2023
The art director of Sinai Animation Studio, Maria Petzolt, talks about the project “To His Glory”
To His Glory
Every film features a different martyr from the first centuries a.D. It is an epic experience with emotional complexity, faith, and value. There will be miracles, epic fights, clever dialogues, and engaging relationships. We use all potential of the art of animation to make the visualization of the stories as appealing as possible. This won’t be an illustrated biography for kids, where a narrator reads a text, while some characters blink and smile. I want this to have dimension, cinematography! The characters will laugh, grief, and experience real emotion. The art style will be inspired by Byzantine art, you can really feel the icons come to life! Imagine your kid sees an icon in church and says, “Mom, look! There is saint Panteleimon!”
You want it. I know you do!
