My name is Felix Graf.
I was born in
Villingen-Schwenningen, Germany, in 1981. When I was
four my family moved to Bad Homburg, near Frankfurt am
Main, where I grew up and spent most of my life.
During highschool I developed my interest in movies,
art, computers and video games not knowing this would
lead to something serious, it was just fun. My best
friend and I spent lots of time playing with his high 8
video camera, thinking about funny stories and how to
realise them without experience and money. We did our
first visual effects by painting lightsabres in a fight
sequence we shot and first stop motion animation in a
movie with Lego figures.

After my civil
service and an internship at a webdesign company I
started to study at the german filmschool in 2002.
Here I was able to bring all my interests in art,
movies, computers and animation together. During my
time there I learned a lot about every part of making
a movie from the first planning to the final product,
but animation became my big passion. I made my diploma
in 2005 specialised in character animation.
Since 2005 I work as a freelance animator in Germany.
