ARTE documentary "The labyrinth of the Archangel"
The project
Broadcasted on the TV channel ARTE on December 23, 2017, the fascinating documentary film produced by Gédéon Programmes, benefitted from AGP’s 3D restitutions to retrace the captivating history of the Mont-Saint-Michel.
The scatter plot sequences and 3D animations around the architectural evolution of the monument are the result of a 3D campaign conducted on the site by the AGP teams from 2015 to today. The complex work of historical reconstruction of the phases, conducted in collaboration with the archaeologist and art historian Florence Margo-Schwoebel, allowed to lift the veil on the architectural mysteries of this unique masterpiece.
This documentary movie won the Best Special Effects and Animation Award at the American International Film Festival The Archaeology Channel (TAC 2019) in Oregon.
It also received the Great Price at the RAN 2018 (Archeological Meeting in Narbonne, France), the Pricefrom the DRAC at the Amiens Archaeological Film Festival in 2018, the Special Mention «Best Cultural Heritage Film» at the ARKHAIOS festival in South Carolina, USA, as well as the Price of the public at the ICRONOS festival in Bordeaux, France in 2018.
