Animetod


A project from the animation workshop Animánie, serves as a guide through a comprehensive methodological and educational series that gradually clarifies the entire animation process from script to post-production. I have been invited to this project as a sound designer and composer. So far, I have created an energetic and catchy jingle for them, along with music and sound for five episodes. However, as I mentioned earlier, Animetod is not finished – it is a long-term and extensive project that is continuously being developed, resulting in new, wonderful, funny, and educational episodes. Recommended by 9 out of 10 teachers!

INVENT ARENA


A fascinating exhibition of innovations with international participation, which took place for the third time this year in Třinec, the heart of the Beskids and the steel industry. More than 50 exhibitors showcased new technologies, nearly half of which came from abroad. The exhibition also included a competition of exhibits, where the best innovations in the fields of patents, innovations, and sustainable production were awarded.

For this project, I created the audio branding that adds a unique auditory dimension to the entire experience. At the opening of the exhibition, a string quartet performed my jingle, specially composed for INVENT ARENA. The extended version of the jingle incorporates sounds from 1980s synthesizers, and it culminates with the crackling of a Tesla coil.

The Glass Menagerie


A play by Tennessee Williams presented by the „Těšínské Divadlo“ – Theatre in Český Těšín. The story revolves around Laura, a girl escaping from reality, and it is a beautiful yet sad tale about love and the fragility of life. It portrays a family trapped in a circle of memories and illusions, revealing a fear of the unknown. The action takes place in an apartment in St. Louis in 1937, which inspired me greatly through the era's jazz music. The entire soundtrack for the performance is built upon its foundations and principles. The music reflects Laura's fragility and dreaminess filled with hope.

About

My name is Franciszek Humel, and I am a music composer and educator specializing in original film and theatrical music. My goal is to capture the unique character of each project, whether it is a film, theater production, or video game. I love being part of the creation of something new – when music can breathe life into a story, give it depth, and create additional layers that we can explore.

I studied composition at the Church Conservatory of the German Order in Opava and the International Conservatory in Prague. In addition to composing music, I also teach music theory and composition. On this page, you will find samples of my work – projects I have had the honor of working on.

If you are interested in collaborating with me or have any questions, feel free to contact me here or on social media.
