A stop motion animation series in collaboration with museums in Attica that creates the first contact of children with museums, through an entertaining narrative, while at the same time creating the foundation for family entertainment and discussion between children and parents, as well as in museums and schools. In collaboration with the managers of the children's educational programs of each museum, characteristic exhibits have been selected that represent each museum (two exhibits per museum). These are then converted into 3D models. At the same time, the composition of the original music for each episode, as well as the recording in the ERT Music Ensembles, creates another impressive dimension to the production.
Today:
“National Archaeological Museum – Antikythera Mechanism” [With English subtitles]
Episode 4
The Antikythera Mechanism is one of the most famous exhibits at the National Archaeological Museum. It is the oldest known complex mechanical computer, and in this episode, we present its basic functions in a simple way. These include determining the positions of the Sun, the Moon, and the five planets known in ancient times, predicting solar and lunar eclipses, maintaining a multi-year calendar with great precision, and determining the timing of the Panhellenic Games.
