Kristjan Holm

(rojen leta 1976 v Talinu, Estonija) je diplomiral na estonski Akademiji umetnosti kot notranji oblikovalec leta 1999. Ukvarjal se je z javnimi notranjimi prostori in leta 2004 sodeloval na beneškem Arhitekturnem bienalu kot predstavnik projekta Trojan Horse Toilet. V njegovem eksperimentiranju s pojmom prostora, ostaja razumevanje sobe kot s štirimi stenami omejenega prostora zanj problematično. Nepričakovano odkritje, da tudi filmsko sličico omejujejo štirje robovi, ga je privedlo do zamenjave predmeta zanimanja in tako se je posvetil preiskavi povezav med sličico in steno. Leta 2007 se je vpisal na magistrski študij animacije na estonski Akademiji umetnosti. Väike Maja (Hišica) je njegov prvi animirani film.

(born in 1976 in Tallinn, Estonia) graduated from the Estonian Academy of Arts in 1999 as interior designer. He worked on public interior environments, and in 2004 participated at the Venice Architectural Biennale as ambassador for Trojan Horse Toilet. He has made different spatial experiments, but the understanding of a room as limited space defined by four walls, still troubled him. An unexpected discovery, that the film frame has four edges as well, gave him a final impulse to change his subject of interest and dedicate his life to the investigation of ties between frame and wall. He entered the MA studies in the Estonian Academy of Arts, Animation Department in 2007. Väike Maja (Small House) is his first animation film.

Dušan Kastelic

je bil rojen v majhnem rudarskem mestu sredi Slovenije. Ker je bil prešibek, da bi nadaljeval družinsko tradicijo in postal rudar, se je izšolal za učitelja. Kmalu se je izkazalo, da za učitelja ni dovolj pameten. Zato je postal animator.

was born in a small mining town in central Slovenia. Because he was too weak to carry on the family tradition and become a miner himself, he got an education as a teacher. But it soon became clear that he was not smart enough to become a teacher. So he became an animator instead.
