Shortly after the projection of Facehunger we met with Warsickle. He was quite "?inspired?" don´t know if it is a right word, but liked it and wished to make a new project with me. I don´t remmember the main reason why we decide to go for this, anyway it somehow happened. And here is the result. It´s Carnivora second project, after that Facehunger made purely by free and open source software. Yap... that´s it...

Atlantis | The epic documentary movie about the last days of legendary island civilisation

Long time ago, there was an island in Mediterranean Sea. It was told, that mighty and wise people lived there. Wiser than anybody else. Knowing in secrets of fire and iron, stars and sun. Skilled in crafts that nobody find useful (well that does not soud that epic...). Uninteresed in rest of the world, secretely living, surrounded by the waves of ocean.
Until one day. A day of storms, when Gods were crying, Atlantis disappeared without trace. For Centuries the most inteligent and highly educated brains were seeking for informatios about this mythical civilisation and for reasons of their sudden disappearance. But without any results. Without even one solid proof of it´s existence. The case of Atlantis grown to be a fairy tale, simillar to UFO phenomenon. Until now...

I am proud to present you the results of my own research, done while ago. This is a serious documentary about the fall of Atlantis, about it´s very last day. Loaded with facts and proved events this movie provides unbelievable experience and uncover the truth more amazing than anyone can imagine. Prepare yourself for one of the most amazing discoveries ever made

watch Atlantis!

What is Carnivora publishing

Being confused of what´s going on here? What the hell is this all about? Carnivora is an experimental movie publishing which is focused on experimenting with special effects, animation techniques, strange and not well known movie genres and alternative narrative ways.

Carnivora vision is to produce and publish movies about everything, except about so called daily or normal life. To provide spiritual feast for people who have enough of daily life in their daily life. Who are riding in tram and bus, sometimes go to doctor, sometimes fall in love etc.. And who the hell DO NOT need to watch it on TV or even in cinema. Who does not give a shit about watching other people´s life in some fucking reality shows. Simply for those who seeks for something extraordinary, weird, something they can´t experience in tram on their own. Carnivorians believe that this is purpose of movies. To enjoy something else, something different, to leave this reality for a while.

Carnivora is a platform for experimenting with all kinds of motion pictures, trying to provide new, special and unusual experience beond the borders of imagination. Something weird, strange, stupid, fantastic, anything unusual. Due to experimentation maybe not always with satisfying results... but hey!

Open source and free software

There is also one special aspect of Carnivora which should be mentioned. All of the tools we use are strictly open-source and free software. The idea of support is simple. If we will be lucky and create some amazing movie, stating that all we were using was was open-source and free software, we can prove that those are tools capable to counter most of their commercial equivalents. This way show more people the advantages of using it and make them intersted in support, but more importantly in software patent problematics.

So everything you see in Carnivora has been made made completely on open-source and free software(in order to save the plaet of course!)

Since we are fan of open-source and free kind of way, we also share all the results, method and experience we achieve.
