Throughout the years, Wizart Animation Studio has become a symbol of high quality and creativity over the years, and its stand-out projects include world-famous franchises such as "The Snow Queen," "Sheep and Wolves," and "And the Tales of Wonder Keepers." After 15 years of successful work, the studio announced a rebranding and changed its brand to Voronezh Animation Studio. This rebranding not only shows the studio's commitment to quality and innovation but also highlights the unique connection with the city where technology and creativity merge, where bright ideas are born, and where the studio's production base and creative team are located.
Voronezh Animation Studio continues creating universal stories with exciting plots close to audiences of different cultures and age groups. Using the latest 3D animation technologies, the studio aims to create high-quality content that will interest the viewer, make deep sense, and evoke emotions. "Projects by our studio have been released successfully in the Middle East. The five parts of the 'Snow Queen' franchise have had theatrical distribution, and its characters have gained popularity in the countries of this region," Vladimir Nikolaev, General Producer of Voronezh Animation Studio, told Señal News. "Our new projects tell exciting stories in the world of high-tech 3D animation with spectacular special effects, at the core of which are stories about friendship, mutual help, family values, support, and understanding, which is important and valuable not only in the Middle East but also around the world," he added.
NEW LAUNCHES
Among the studio's new projects is an animated film for a teenage audience, "The Steel Family." Three children from an ordinary family are at the heart of the story: a fifteen-year-old robotics fan, a twelve-year-old blogger, and a seven-year-old girl who adores animals. Suddenly, they discover that their father is not an engineer but a real secret agent. The whole family goes on a dangerous journey from Moscow to Siberia to a scientific base hidden in the taiga wilderness, where an energy of incredible power unknown to science has been discovered. Together, they will have to unravel the mystery of the extraordinary energy and protect it from a powerful corporation that wants to use its power for its profit.
The project was released on Kinopoisk, Russia's largest online platform. Immediately after the release, the audience enthusiastically received it, the platform's rating was 8.6, and the project entered the top 150 of all cinema content. The project is available as a TV series or a feature animated film for international distribution.
The studio is also working on creating a new animated film, "Arctic Heroes," which tells the adventures of school kids rescuing a real living and intelligent baby mammoth found in the Arctic ice. The heroes help the Baby Mammoth escape from an obsessed scientist and set off together on an exciting journey to uncover the mystery of its origin. The project's universe and plot provide unique opportunities for co-production with China. Both projects were presented at the Dubai International Content Market, which brings together industry professionals from the global entertainment content industry.
