Perrault and other authors in a postscoring of the Russian stars appeared.

The third collection of filmstrips from Ivan Okhlobystin are fascinating stories Flint, Adventures of Myunkhauzena and Gamelnsky rat catcher.
"I remember filmstrips since my early childhood. Then there was neither "Wait a moment", nor "Winnie-the-Pooh" yet, but was Mowgli, for example. It was necessary to twist a tape with the personnel and with signatures to them. But then nobody guessed to make under them a sound substrate, and someone had to read to children who did not know letters yet aloud. And now parents will be able just to turn on to kids, to listen and watch together these filmstrips which once played a huge role in their own understanding of a subject of the environment animal protections and became the first step for acquaintance to masterpieces of the world literature", Nikolay Drozdov, the anchorman "In fauna" noted |
"MULTIKUBIK" revives tradition of reading filmstrips. The company carefully recovered hundreds of Soviet fairy tales in pictures on which generations of modern parents grew: "Winnie-the-Pooh", "Malysh and Carlson", "Gulliver in the country of Liliputiya", "A cat who walks in itself" and many others. More than one hundred are transferred by specialists of the company to English, in plans - transfer for 5.
"Modern children stick out in tablets all the time. They are isolated because of virtual reality and communicate with parents and peers less. And filmstrips are an occasion to spend time together, to strengthen emotional connection. Joint reading and listening of the fairy tale - the whole ritual which is kept in mind. It will be pleasant when they grow up, to tell children how they with the father watched filmstrips. And, the image unlike smartphones and tablets using CINEMOOD can be transferred directly to a ceiling or a wall, and it is not so harmful to eyes and a bearing", 'Ivan Okhlobystin, the Russian actor noted' |

"It is very important to show to modern children filmstrips because in it there is an educational moment. When the child sees the picture, the imagination actively works for him. He thinks out to himself images, studies actions which are described in the fairy tale. When he sees letters, he learns to write correctly and competently quicker. When you listen to the audiofairy tale, it turns out not so figuratively as when you see the picture and you it is described by a familiar pleasant voice. And unlike animated films, filmstrips calm because there is no loudspeaker another, more slowly, frequent change of the personnel, the child can concentrate entirely on the picture and consider all parts", Oksana Fedorova, model and the leader "Good night" kids noted" |
As reported in "MULTIKUBIK", all star filmstrips on the CINEMOOD OS platform are provided to users of portable film projectors free of charge since September 1 and until the end of 2019.
"We asked to read fairy tales as project participants would tell them to the children and grandsons on summer vacation. Filmstrips sound sincerely, expressively and with soul. Thus, we want to draw attention to unfairly to the forgotten family tradition of reading fairy tales to children. It is very important to transfer to new generation of value by whom parents, grandmothers and grandfathers grew. Therefore we try to update them for modern children: we digitize, we translate into English, we shift animated films in a format of filmstrips and we sound with stars. Filmstrips are a good method to teach to read and acquaint preschool children with characters of classical literature in playful way", 'Darya Mingaliyeva, the marketing director and the co-founder of MULTIKUBIK company noted' |
