Profile

Who I Am

I built and led the Virtual Production department at Gorodenkoff Productions in Tallinn — taking the studio from its first LED volume tests to attracting major European advertising clients.

Over nearly seven years, I developed the full technical pipeline in Unreal Engine 5, trained and mentored the team, and helped establish VP as a core part of the studio's offering.

Before that, I spent years creating game assets at Ringtail Studios, worked as a 3D artist and compositor at CG Company (Moscow), Vilks Postproduction (Riga), and contributed to top advertising campaigns at Leo Burnett Kontuur and other agencies.

I'm based in Tallinn, Estonia and fully available for remote collaboration worldwide.
