Angela Jedek (Filmakadamie Baden-Württemberg)
Nemčija/Germany, 2001, digiBeta, 8’


"Bilo je nekoč" z različnih perspektiv ali zgodba o kul kavbojih, muhi in razvoju dogodkov.

Enfants du miel

Anja Struck (Kunsthochschule für Medien Köln)
Nemčija/Germany, 2001, 35 mm, 7’


Enfants du miel je nadrealna zgodba o travniku, po katerem letajo čebele, matica jé svoj obrok, sladkosneden zajec pa išče med. Enfants du miel je animiran film z lutkami, ki je bil ustvarjen za odrsko projekcijo nemške glasbenice in igralke Meret Becker.


Enfants du miel is a surreal story about a meadow with bees flying around, the queen-bee eating her meal and a sweet-toothed hare, who is looking for honey. Enfants du miel is a puppet-animation-film, which was made as a stage projection for the German musician and actress Meret Becker.


Štorklja / Der Storch / The Stork

Klaus Morschheuser (Filmakadamie Baden-Württemberg)
Nemčija/Germany, 2002, digiBeta, 8’


Štorkljo, ki je izčrpana od boja z gravitacijo in se trudi, da ne bi izgubila svojega svežnja, nadleguje izjemno drzen vrabec, ki hoče vedeti vse o njenem poslanstvu.. Ker sam ve nekaj več o rožicah in čebelicah, poskusi štorklji pojasniti dejstva o moških, ženskah in otrocih. Na koncu ostane nepojasnjeno le, kaj je v svežnju, ki ga prenaša štorklja.


The Stork, exhausted and struggling against gravitation, trying not to lose his bundle, is getting bugged by an immensely bold sparrow who wants to know about the stork's mission. As he knows a bit more about bees and flowers, he tries to explain the real facts of men, women and babies to the stork. At the end, it is only unclear, “what is in the bundle that the stork is carrying.”


bela / weiss / white

Florian Grolig (Kunsthochschule Kassel)
Nemčija/Germany, 2007, Beta SP, 5’


Senca na zidu. Orientirati se v brezmejni belini. Perspektive vznikajo in izginjajo. V jedru beline je monotono ravnovesje, brezskrbna otopelost odšteva čas. Po eni definiciji je prostor odsotnost neprijetnega stika. In gneča je zagotovo smrt. Presunljiv minimalizem računalniške 3D animacije o črnini, ki izbruhne iz beline.


A shadow on the wall. Trying to find orientation in an endless white space. Perspectives appear and disappear. In the middle of white is monotone balance, jolly blasé marking time. One definition of space is the absence of embarrassing contact. But gridlock is definitely death.
Fascinating minimalist 3D-computer animation about black bursting out of white.


Rauschen und Brausen I

Daniel Burkhardt (Kunsthochschule für Medien Köln)
Nemčija/Germany, 2007, digiBeta, 5’


V ozadju nakopičena nadstropja nebotičnikov, ki se dvigajo v praznino. Pred njimi grmeč promet, ki se ne dotika tal. Vozila pospešujejo po zraku, nebotičniki nimajo opore. Nepretrgano oddaljevanje razširi pogled na dogajanje, prečka prostor med bližino in oddaljenostjo, zbledi od konkretnega v abstraktno, od otipljivega v nedosegljivo.


Skyscraper floors stacked up in the background, rising up into the void. In front of this, roaring traffic not touching the ground. The vehicles are speeding through the air, the skyscrapers rest on nothing. A continuous backwards zoom expands the view on this setting, crosses the space between closeness and distance, fades from concrete to abstract, from tangible to unseizable.


O sovraštvu, ljubezni in tistem drugem / About Love, Hate and the other one

Tobias Bilgeri (Kunsthochschule Kassel)
Nemčija/Germany, 2007, 35 mm, 1’30’’


Na griču se srečata Ljubezen in Sovraštvo. Si bo Ljubezen priborila ljubezen Sovraštva – ali pa bo začela sovražiti?


Love and Hate meet each other on a hill. Will Love get the love of Hate, or will love come to hate?


Dioniz / Dionysos / Dionysus

Jörg Weidner, Anke Späth (HfBK Hamburg)
Nemčija/Germany, 2007, 35 mm, 14’


Stop-motion film, ki se dogaja v svetu gline in pepela, razkrije izvor in bistvo antičnega boga Dioniza. Gre za dostojanstven poklon simbolu razdora, simbolu kljubovalnosti našega bivanja in stanju ekstaze, ki nam ljubeznivo dovoli, da pozabimo nase.


Set in a world of clay and ashes, this stopmotion film reveals the origins and the essence of the ancient god Dionysos. It is a sombre obeisance to the symbol of our disruption, to the symbol of the contrariness of our existence and to the state of ecstasy, which graciously lets us forget ourselves.


Poni za malo Conny / Der Conny ihr Pony / The Pony of Conny

Robert Pohle, Martin Hentze (Hochschule für Kunst und Design Halle)
Nemčija/Germany, 2008, digital, 5’


Ne glede na to, kako ga obrača, Conny svojega ponija nikakor ne more spraviti na avtobus št. 3, ki pelje v Breite v švicarskem kantonu Schaffhausen. Ko bi si za enajsti rojstni dan vsaj zaželela medveda!


No matter how she tries to twist and turn it, little Conny simply cannot fit her pony into the number 3 bus headed for Breite in the Swiss canton of Schaffhausen. If only she’d asked for a bear for her eleventh birthday!


Der Collosiaeus Urbanus Polyphagus

Doris Freigofas (Kunsthochschule Berlin)
Nemčija/Germany, 2008, Beta SP, 3’


Kratki stop-motion animirani film, ustvarjen na delavnici.


A short stop-motion animated film made in a workshop.


Proste misli / Die Gedanken Sind Frei / Thoughts are Free

Urte Zintler (Kunsthochschule Kassel)
Nemčija/Germany, 2009, digiBeta, 4’30’’


Starejša ženska, ki ji sposobnost pomnjenja začne pešati, sama pri sebi poje pesem Die Gedanken sind frei (Proste misli). Znani napev prebudi tok spominov, ki se ji v kaotičnem zaporedju vrtijo pred očmi. Ko spomini bledijo in izginjajo, ima z besedilom vse več težav.


An elderly woman, whose capacity for remembering is beginning to weaken, is singing the song Die Gedanken sind frei (Thoughts are Free) to herself. The long-familiar song evokes a flood of memories that repeatedly pass before her eyes in a chaotic cycle. She struggles with the words as the memories fade and disappear.


Življenjska žila / Lebensader / Lifeline

Angela Steffen (Filmakadamie Baden-Württemberg)
Nemčija/Germany, 2009, digiBeta, 5’45’’


Deklica v listu odkrije ves svet.


A little girl finds the whole world inside a leaf.


Egodyston

Xenia Lesniewski (Hochschule für Gestaltung Offenbach)
Nemčija/Germany, 2009, 35 mm, 3’30’’


Od strahu pred smrtjo mi bo razneslo glavo. Mislim, da moji možgani potrebujejo druge oči.


My fear of death will blow my head away. I think I need other eyes for my brain.


Stoli št. 6 – Prazna soba / Die Stühle – #6 leerer Raum / The Chairs #6 - Empty Room

Benjamin Ramirez Perez (Kunsthochschule für Medien Köln)
Nemčija/Germany, 2010, digiBeta, 1’


Prazna soba je del serije kratkih animiranih filmov o drami Stoli Eugena Ionesca, iz katetre črpajo splošne teme in konkretna dejanja. V tem filmu se lik spotika skozi premikajočo se mrežo, ki jo sestavljajo črte, se izgublja v njeni strukturi in skozi ves film znova pojavlja. S ponavljanjem, množenjem in zrcaljenjem dogajanja se odvija svojevrstna koreografija.


Empty Room is part of a series of short animations on Eugene Ionesco's The Chairs, taking up general themes and specific actions from the play. Here a character is stumbling through a moving grid of lines, getting lost in it's structure and reappearing again throughout the piece. Through repetition, multiplication and mirrored action a kind of choreography unfolds.


Ptič / Ptak / Bird

Gerhard Funk (Hochschule der Bildenden Künste Saar)
Nemčija/Germany, 2010, digiBeta, 6’26’’


Junak zgodbe je kot vsi predstavniki njegove vrste rojen kot križanec med živaljo in rastlino. Videti je kot ptič, noga pa se mu nadaljuje v korenino. Ko v nesreči korenino izgubi, nenadoma dobi nepričakovano svobodo. Postane prvi pravi ptič in začne se življenje, polno dogodivščin. Animirani film pripoveduje zgodbo o resničnem izvoru ptic.


Like all his conspecifics, the hero of this story is born as a mix between an animal and a plant. He looks like a bird, but he has a root at the end of his leg. After an accident the hero loses the root and as a consequence he suddenly gains an unexpected freedom. An adventurous life begins, since he has become the first real bird. This animation tells a story of where birds actually come from.
