Outreach Projects
Science and Space in short-movies
short documentary movie
After more than three years in orbit, the mission of the CHEOPS space telescope on the 7th March 2023 was extended by ESA.
Led by the University of Bern in collaboration with the University of Geneva, CHEOPS is a joint mission of the European Space Agency (ESA) and Switzerland.
Since its launch in December 2019, the satellite's extremely precise measurements have contributed to several key discoveries in the field of exoplanets.
The extension will make it possible to study these fascinating worlds around other stars in even more detail.
The movie was published by Bern University and PlanetS as a part of the mission extension press release.
It was mentioned and quoted by RTS (Radio and Television Switzerland.)

Detective comics style series
CaSSIS is a high-resolution colour stereo camera in Mars orbit, making remarkable images of the Red planet. What mysteries has it revealed today?
Together with Detective Nick, we will demystify the mysteries of Red Planet.
There are two pilot episodes of the comics-style detective story of the CaSSIS movie series. Combining a spectacular fiction movie format full of computer graphics with real science explanations based on the CaSSIS experiment's images from Mars is a unique style of Magic Science Pro to demystify the complex world of science.
AWARD: "Best Short Film Professionals"
The winner of the 5th Global Science Film Festival 2023. It was shown in Switzerland (Basel), China, India and Japan.
The Serial was selected to be shown on the "ESA web TV"

Zero-G gravity experiment
"Dust Puzzles" is a new format movie to demystify the complex world of science. We combined a spectacular fiction movie format full of computer graphics, real science explanations, and cutting-edge physical experiments in micro-gravity conditions with Zero-G flight.
All of us are made from stardust. But how were the first small space bodies formed out of the dust in Space?
That was precisely the last question, which Dave did not manage to prepare for the exam. Rushing to the examination, he asks for help from his pocket artificial intelligent HAL-ie. But precisely at that time, HAL-ie involves Dave in passing through her puzzles to receive an answer to his question.
AWARD: "Best scientists as filmmakers" 4th Global Science Film Festival, Zurich
It was shown on different film festivals worldwide.

How to see the smallest bricks of the Universe?
The film tells about a giant microscope - a collider.
We visit experimental facilities that strike the imagination, witness the work of scientists, and even go on adventures.
But there is a unique feature - we observe all of this through the eyes of a child. And due to their curiosity and rich imagination, children sometimes see much more than adults…

Why is Space so attractive to mankind? What is similar between us and the stars? Why do people devote their whole life to space exploration?
In the debut movie of Timofey Stupak, "Through the stardust," you will not find clear answers to these questions, but it will let you go deep inside your own Space to find the clue.

Music Projects
Another area of our creativity
music clips for musicians
We work with worldwide musicians to make their music spark through our magical storytelling in clips.
We are scientists who appreciate the beauty incarnated
not only in formulas but also in other forms.
We are artists fasсinated by science with various tools to transmit the fantastic world of science to the public.
We believe that the cooperation between science and art is a wide and perspective course.
