The adhan animation start with a hyperspace shot showing several planets and flowing shiny stars floating in the vast and endless universe, all the elements are made of glass for its purity, and could be easily interpreted as jewels and pearls made with Islamic arabesques / Arabic ornaments .
The goal behind using the universe as an establishing shot is to reinforce the idea of the supreme power of Allah above all his creations, since we start the Adhan with the holy words “ ALLAH AKBAR”.
It’s shows also how the words of Allah spreads in all the universe for a call of prayer time.The shot could be also interpreted as a focus on a microscopic life and therefore showing how theses holy words spreads from the infinite big to the infinite small .
All the following walk trough shots are typically beauty shots of the " Sultan Qaboos " Grand Mosque as requested by the client but could be seen as any other generic mosque .
Thank you for watching.
