From 1968 Hubert Sielecki made his first artistic attempts with film material. Animated films were also made, some of which he made together with Zbigniew Rybczyński . Sielecki's films are auteur films , in which he is mostly responsible for all areas of production, from script to film music. On some films he worked with writers like Gerhard Rühm , Antonio Fian , Gernot Wolfgruber , painters like Maria Lassnig , Tone Fink and musicians like Wolfgang Mitterer . Due to his specialization in animation film, Sielecki occupies a special position within the Austrian film avant-garde . Hubert Sielecki also produced cinema advertisements, including the festival trailers for the Austrian Film Days in 1987, 1988 and 1989 and eleven advertising films for Falter magazine from 1990 to 1998 .

Several films by Hubert Sielecki have been shown at film festivals in Germany, including the Berlinale , the Hamburg Short Film Festival , the Bochum Video Festival , the Bamberg Short Film Festival and the Regensburg Short Film Week .
