Feketefül
Feketefül consists of Gàbor Fekete, born in Hungary in 1954, living and working in Lucerne as a freelance Illustrator and lecturer at the Lucerne School of Arts & Design + Jòzsef Fülöp, born in 1964 also in Hungary, working as a lecturer of Visual Communication at the Hungarian Academy of Art Handcraft & Design in Budapest.
They've been working together since 1997 and have done a number of spots for the Hungarian Music Station "Z+", winning the Varga Studio's Storyboard Competition for short trick films in Internet (Budapest 2001).
 
"Herr Hirny's History" is planned as a series of witty episodes- short trick films with a sort of intriguing, somewhat absurd storyline.
Simple, everyday situations but also burlesque-type thrillers revolve around this minute little man with a brain instead of a head.
Quite out of the ordinary is the three-part vertical picture layout.
Allowing an extension of both the formal and time dimensions, which is extremely important considering the minimal time at hand.
This enables a result to be shown from three different perspectives at the same time
(e.g. a close up and a full picture side by side, with the actual story running parallel right next to it).
The very first episode of "Herr Hirny's History" will be produced for this year's Lucerne Comics Festival.
In addition, an exhibition will be made to show the relationship between animation, art and comics.
It will consist of large size pictures with motives from the trick film and also a comic from which sequences for the animation were taken.
