Biography
Otto Hunte (9 January 1881 – 28 December 1960) was a German production designer, art director and set decorator. Hunte is considered one of the most important artists in the history of early German cinema, mainly for his set designs on the early silent movies of Fritz Lang. A working relationship with fellow designers Karl Vollbrecht and Erich Kettelhut defined his early career. Hunte's architectural designs are found in many of the period's most important films including Dr. Mabuse the Gambler, Die Nibelungen (1924), Metropolis (1927) and Der blaue Engel. Hunte subsequently worked as one of the leading set designers during the Nazi era. After World War II, he was employed by the East German DEFA studios.
