​BELA PETER PFUNDT / BIO

Multimedia Artist

Graduate of OCA (OCADU) Ontario College of Art, 1972-76.

In 1979, I started at CBC Television as a graphic designer-animator-illustrator. The years that followed, I designed the look/format of TV shows, openings or anything that required Art Direction/Design, illustration or animation. 

 

Some most noted shows:

Market Place, The 5th. Estate, The National, documentary specials, The Greatest Canadians (Don Cherry) and animations/illustrations for The Nature of Things and Sesame Street.

In addition, I designed-animated commercials for such CBC radio shows as: The Current, Metro Morning as well as other television commercials.

During my 25 years, I've evolved into various, multimedia areas of interest in the film and TV industry.

Today, I consider myself as a Multimedia Artist/Indie Film Producer.

 

In addition: I produce personal biographies for people;  illustrated for educational books, editorials for newspapers and periodicals; studied comedy improv at Second City; film/television script writing; and  provide my voice characterizations for industrial videos or commercials. (I have a repertoire of over 100 voice characterizations.)

  

In 2015, I produced a low-budget mockumentary film, Clem Junebug–Ghost Detective (Feature Film, 65 min.). It won 3 awards and 1 nomination. (DVD available at Amazon; viewable on Amazon-Prime & reelhouse.org).

In the film, I produced, wrote, directed, edited, portrayed 8 characters, composed the music and designed the entire graphic production as well as financed it myself. It took a year and a half to complete. I’ve also produced a short film, Excuse Me? What?!, which in essence is a segment from the film. It received an award for Best Comedy Short.

Nevada Film Festival – Golden Reel Award – Best Feature, 2015

Nomination for Best Comedy Film, The Berlin International Film Maker Festival, 2015
