Julian Antonisz (November 8, 1941 – January 31, 1987), born Julian Józef Antoniszczak, was a Polish avant-garde filmmaker, artist, film animator, screenwriter, composer, and inventor.
Two years later he debuted with his first animated film Phobia (Fobia in Polish).
The idea after the technique was to paint or scratch the images directly onto the movie tape instead of using a camcorder.
Antonisz famous of his mechanical skills, has constructed numerous accessories supporting the creation of non-camera movies.
Another invention was his prototype of a "chropograf" (which could loosely be translated as texture-graph), which created an image with distinctive levels of roughness, allowing the blind to recognize shapes presented on the picture.
