Magda Kreps

Magda Kreps is an animator and filmmaker from Germany with Polish and Russian roots. In her work, she explores and combines documentary storylines and the creative process of experimental animation.

Magda graduated with a BA in Communication Design from Hamburg University of Applied Sciences. Her initial focus was editorial design before she fell in love with animation. Since then, Magda made five films to date, which have been screened at multiple international film festivals, including Flatpack Festival, Monstra Lisbon Animation Festival and Factual Animation Film Festival.

Magda Kreps is interested in non-fictive storytelling, using abstract and experimental narratives to bring them closer to the audience and to create a thought-provoking audio-visual experience.

She likes to approach each project individually, creating experiments and rules to guide further contextual and stylistic decisions. Her work is often preceded by multidisciplinary research in the fields of sociology, psychology and anthropology.

Being a recent graduate from the Royal College of Art, Magda is excited to collaborate and work with other creatives, studios and institutions.
