Storied's video: Why Has the Majestic Griffin Been Forgotten Monstrum

@Why Has the Majestic Griffin Been Forgotten? | Monstrum
Don’t miss future episodes of Monstrum, subscribe! http://bit.ly/pbsstoried_sub The Griffin is a half-lion, half-eagle creature that is commonly seen adorning royal crests and perched menacingly atop buildings. Why is this ancient creature that many of us see every day largely forgotten? The world is full of monsters, myths, and legends and Monstrum isn’t afraid to take a closer look. The show, hosted by Emily Zarka, Ph.D., takes us on a journey to discover a new monster in each new episode. Monstrum looks at humans' unique drive to create and shape monster mythology through oral storytelling, literature, and film and digs deep into the history of those mythologies. Written and Hosted by: Dr. Emily Zarka Director: David Schulte Executive Producer: Amanda Fox Producer: Thomas Fernandes Editor/Animator: Jordyn Buckland Illustrator: Samuel Allen Executive in Charge (PBS): Maribel Lopez Director of Programming (PBS): Gabrielle Ewing Additional Footage: Shutterstock Music: APM Music Produced by Spotzen for PBS Digital Studios.
