Bio/Filmography Films Compilations Screenings Press
Bio:

Having studied fine art in Russia I came to Australia and further pursued my ideas through animation. My passion is for creating environments and characters, bringing to life unique personalities and places that would otherwise have only existed in one's imagination. I am currently working as a compositor/animator in a leading Melbourne production studio as well as running my own freelance business. The two films I have directed and animated have won awards and been screened nationally and internationally.
