My name is Lili Déri (or just simply "Drili"), an LGBTQ+ animator and illustrator from Hungary! With a passion for the craft of animation and all that it is capable of, I love to experiment with different styles and mediums in order to tell captivating and engaging stories and make little guys move. I graduated trade school with a vocational degree in animation and film making in 2023, and hopefully soon will be pursuing a university degree in character animation as well. I the meantime I'm working on personal projects and animated shorts.

Various school-, personal- and workshop projects from 2016-2023.
Ouch (2024)
Made at Mediawave Somogyfajsz Nyári Berek 2024 film workshop. Portrays my struggles with an ongoing chronic headache problem that's been torturing me for 8 months without stopping at the time of publishing. I used my own MRI scans for the film. The diagnosis for the MRI is negative, these images show no abnormalities of the brain whatsoever.The film's original version was made entirely in Hungarian including all the title cards. This version was made for publishing on youtube and possibly for submitting to international film festivals.
Manifesto (2023) - graduation project
At the end of the 5 year long vocational program, not unlike graduating university students, we were expected to produce a thesis film based on some pre-agreed judging criteria.Inspired by a previous school project based on an anthology of god-awful postmodern poems, Manifesto follows the misadventures of Adam and Eve in a world of abstarct and frivolous stream of consciousness, masquerading as profound philosophical thoughts with deeper meaning. There's also birds.
