The greatest Czech follower of
Vladislav Starevich's and
Aleksandr Ptushko's tradition of
puppet movies was
Hermina Tyrlova (1900), who made dozens of animated shorts, sometimes mixing
animation and live action, and often animating
everyday's objects, almost always accompanied with
Zdenek Liska's music, such as:
Ferda Mravenec/ Fernando the Ant (1944),
Vzpoura Hracek/ The Revolt of the Toys (1946),
and
Ukolebavka/ Lullaby (1948).
Starting with
Uzel na Kapesniku/ The Knot in the Handkerchief (1958) her shorts
became more abstract, culminating with
the six woollen stories of the 1960s,
when she was already in her 60s
starting with
Vlnena Pohadka/ The Woolly Tale (1964),
and the "felt stories" of the 1970s, via surreal sketches like
Modra Zasterka/ The Blue Apron (1965).
