Adventure fantasy “Moon Keeper” is an amazingly beautiful and visually enchanting animated film about a bizarre world. The story of the cartoon is completely unlike the usual fabulous or fantastic stories. Each of the characters is a unique graphic discovery of the film “The Keeper of the Moon” (voice actors: O.S., I. Izhlen, M. Gregorio, S. Ahmad, B. Allemane). The plot is realized through scenes that lead to indescribable delight, in which the creators introduce the main characters to the viewer and explain the rules by which their fantasy world exists.
Creators - Project Pride
The new French cartoon was doomed to success thanks to the strongest creative team involved in working on it. The director was the leading animator of extremely popular animation masterpieces (Monsters Against Aliens and Kung Fu Panda), a talented creator of modern animation Alexander Eboyan. Ex-animator of the Disney studio, director and animator of the Rapunzel tape, Glen Keane, has occupied a responsible position as artistic director. It was he who bore the main burden of responsibility for the cartoon "The Guardian of the Moon." Actors and roles were distributed with his direct participation.
The creative group also included: the production designer of Despicable Me and 9, Aurelien Predal; the character design was developed by Nicolas Marlet, who had previously worked on creating the texture of the characters in Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda; Sébastien Bruno appeared in the guise of the main animator, known for his work on "Monsters on Vacation"; and the chair of the leading 3D animation technologist “tried on” Hidekata Yosumi, who honed his skills on the Rapunzel cartoon. Such a strong team took part in the creation of the fantasy "Guardian of the Moon." Voice actors also demonstrated the highest level of professionalism.
Plot. Tie
The plot of the cartoon “The Keeper of the Moon”, the actors involved in the work on the project, described as a unique, original story, unlike any of the famous fairy tales. The authors are tempting to offer the beholder a plunge into a world where the usual celestial bodies of the sun and moon are like balloons orbiting the earth only because they are attached to two giant creatures orbiting the planet for a day. They are controlled by the Guardians. When the elderly Guardians retire, they are replaced by successors - the new drovers.
Intrigue
Once, the so-called “flint-guy” Sohon (voice acting by Omar Si), as well as the modest fellow Mune (Michael Gregorio), who was completely unprepared for the “fallen” honor, once held a responsible position. Their first shift turns into a real disaster: accomplices of the villain Nekros steal the Sun. Sohon and Mune go to the underworld in search of him, along with them there is a connoisseur of all the ancient legends and traditions of Glim - a wax girl-candle (Isia Izhlen). This is a brief description of the plot of the animated film "The Keeper of the Moon." Russian actors who took part in the adaptation of the project for the domestic audience, imbued with the general atmosphere of the picture, coped with their task no worse than their foreign colleagues.

His media persona is known to the domestic audience for the paintings "Mixed Feelings", "Hares + 1" and the mass of music videos.
