Europe's 1st 3D stop-motion feature


Artefacto Productions in Santiago De Compostela Spain are producing a stop-motion feature in stereoscopic 3D based on the walk of saints (The Saint James way) - the 1000 year tradition of making a pilgimage to the wonderful cathedral in Santiago.

The film is directed by Fernando Cortizo, and featuring the voice talents of Carlos Blanco, Jorge Sanz, and Paul Naschy, as well as music by Phillip Glass.

O Apostolo tells the story of a thief who escapes from jail and returns to a remote village where he had previously hidden his loot. Complications ensue when he discovers that the the town is controlled by a corrupt priest and a sacred company of soul hungry spirits. This film is scheduled to premiere in July 2010.

Special Awesome's very own Colin Miller is the films stereoscopic consultant and visual effects supervisor.
