At the 19th annual Bucharest International Animation Film Festival (Animest), storyboard artist Máté Horesnyi discussed designing the characters, working with director László Csáki, and finding inspiration in photography. ‘Pelikan Blue’ won both the Teen Jury Award and the Award for Best Feature (the trailer for the Hungarian animation doc).
