Visionary: FuFu Frauenwahl
Meet another illustrator from our circle of visionaries: FuFu Frauenwahl (yes, it’s an alias, no one really knows where it comes from) is a German-American comicbook artist and illustrator currently living in Berlin. He was born in 1974, studied graphic design in Nuremberg, Germany and comicbook art (“la BD”) in Angoulême, France. His main focus lies in narrative formats, with a strong tendency towards the weird and the fantastic. He has worked on many games (RPGs and computer games), books, films and stage productions.
Just recently he has been featured in the latest VIRUS magazine, talking about his new game Zombory and also “The Dreamlands”. Currently he is very busy working on several artworks for our film, soon you will get a glimpse of what’s to come!
Oh and by the way – today marks the 77th anniversary of H.P. Lovecraft’s death. Let’s commemorate this dreamlandish number with this animated graphic by FuFu Frauenwahl:
Our Man in Hollywood
In this month’s Nautilus magazine you can find a two-pages interview with director Huan Vu where he talks about this project. He also mentioned the latest addition to our crew – experienced special makeup effects artist Dave Snyder, who worked on big feature films like the last two “Star Trek” movies or “Pirates of the Caribbean”. A tremendous Lovecraft fan, he also participated in “The Whisperer in Darkness” by the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society and thus Huan Vu and Jan Roth had the chance to talk to him at the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival 2011 in Portland, Oregon. Dave liked “Die Farbe” very much and expressed that he would love to contribute to the next film project, if there should be one.
Soon we will find out if that’s going to be the case! We can only say that we’re very excited and that we’re looking forward to work with such an expert in his field.
