## What I'm looking for

```text
I’m ready to help develop and implement projects, from brainstorming concepts and drawing visualizations to creating the finished project.
```

## About

```text
I began working in animation in 1998 and entered the film industry as a prop artist and decorator in 2001. Since 2003, I’ve worked as a production designer on music and advertising projects, including European service projects made in Ukraine.

My work spans film and television, advertising, and music videos. I enjoy creating spaces that serve the story and inspire the actors and crew, and I aim to build an emotional connection with viewers through set design.

I develop concepts, create sketches and 3D visualizations, model objects and decor, and make props and large-scale mock-ups. I’m especially interested in bringing virtual or augmented reality and digital elements into physical scenery.
