Filmakademie alumni bring fresh look to new school year with reinvented logo.

The logo was designed by the Bavarian design agency Weltenwandler, represented by Christian Buntrock, an alumnus of Filmakademie’s course specialization in motion design, with assistance from Irina Rubina (animation student at the Institute), Christiane Goppert (also a former motion design student at the Filmakademie) and David Schäfer (graphic designer at the Institute).

Meanwhile, the Animationsinstitut has no intention of discarding all elements of its former logo entirely. The old design features a figure with the head of a computer mouse juggling with color bars. It was designed for the Institute’s establishment in 2002 by Angela Jedek, graduate of the 2000 animation class, and is thus tightly connected to the Institute’s history. Hykade emphasizes that the Institute’s manikin will keep its position as mascot in the future. It has long gained cult status for many employees, friends and alumni.
