The main challenge we faced was to tell this story in a symbolic, yet edifying way, that could effectively illustrate the beauty and complexity of its message.
Our approach was to articulate a storyline based on provided film footage –with actors recreating certain chapters of the story– in combination with animations and additional imagery.
This material was put together following a soundtrack whose compelling music and narration meticulously describe this folktale. The editing, special effects, and post-production designed by Super Eclectic intertwine different episodes and merge surprising images that submerge the viewer into a fantastic, mysterious, and timeless atmosphere.
The final 30 min-long video was rendered in a vertical position in order to meet the specifications of the multimedia installation.
