Social Media: RT Launches Large-Scale Project # Pages

“We managed to assemble a unique creative team of young artists, designers, illustrators, composers, directors. Digital art is a modern and universal language that the younger generation understands. Therefore, we thought that on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the end of one of the worst wars, it’s important and we should try to talk about the Great Patriotic War’s legacy in the language of modern media. # Pages of Victory are emotional stories of people, this is a dedication project, this is a project in which each of its authors has invested a part of themselves, ”said the author of the idea, Kirill Karnovich-Valois.

#PagesWinning will unfold on five platforms on social networks: Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, VKontakte and YouTube.

# TweetsWinning

On Twitter, in real-time mode, a historical reconstruction of the last months of 1945 will be played out, as if the participants in those events, including the commanders of the Red Army fronts, as well as departments and the media, had their microblogging.

The station’s garrison was armed with a large number of machine guns and flamethrowers, several tanks supported it with fire, but this did not help them.

#AbstractWins

The documentary film "The ABC of Victory: From Brest to the Reichstag" will follow the path of the Soviet army in 1945. The authors want to answer the question of whether it is possible to revive history and step over the experience of war to peace. Watch on YouTube.

#Font Victory from # 1917LIVE on Vimeo.

In June 2019, on the eve of the launch of the project #Profiles, the team that had previously created # 1917LIVE and # Romanovs100 introduced the font “May”. It is inspired by the inscriptions left by Soviet soldiers on the walls of the Reichstag in the spring of 1945. You can download the live font here.
