Check out this trailer for Henry Waltz, a new feature film from Hungarian director Emil Goodman. It’s more of a journey into the production design than a true trailer, as we learn very little about the characters or story, but it’s easy to get lost in the fantastic land Goodman has constructed. It’s not the future, it’s not the past, and it’s not steampunk. I think it’s a world all his own…

Peter Nagy’s latest submission to the Second Club contest took 3rd place. Here’s how he intrepeted Steve Martin’s dialog from Planes, Trains & Automobiles.

Tünde Molnár’s short I Am Simon has been selected for dozens of festivals and has taken home a fist-full of prizes. It’s a story told from the perspective of a dog, and it was originally written by Dave Eggers (who more recently co-wrote the Where the Wild Things Are screenplay), then titled After I Was Thrown in the River and Before I Drowned. Here’s a trailer:

Hungarian animator Bella Szederkényi’s 5-minute film, titled Osolya, introduces us to a woman who discovers a sudden change in her body that turns her world upside down. The film was produced as part of her studies at Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in Budapest, and the short just won the top prize in the Graduation Film category at this year’s Anima Festival, otherwise known as the Brussells Animation Film Festival.

Hungarian animator Gabor Lendvai created this CG short, titled Black and White, as his graduate film for Animation Mentor. I hope he explains Donkey Kong next.

Hungarian-native Peter Nagy took the top prize for his submission to the October 11 Second Club contest. It was traditionally animated, and he beat over 200 other contestants – by a pretty large margin, I might add.

Ruska László and Ringeisen Dávid, two animators in Budapest, created this stop-motion ID for the Kecskemet Animation Film Festival (KAFF). The two also shot a short making-of video.
