I’m Konstantin Regler, a creative professional with a strong focus on video editing, visual effects, and 3D animation. I studied visual effects and 3D animation for three years, which gave me a solid technical and artistic foundation in digital production and storytelling. Over time, I’ve also worked with clients on real projects, gaining practical experience in delivering visual content that meets creative and professional standards. Alongside my creative work, I also work in sales on the side, where I have experience in cold calling, warm calling, lead generation, and client communication. This combination of creative production and sales has helped me develop both artistic versatility and strong communication skills.

I have been creating 2D and 3D computer graphics, animation, special effects for advertising, cinema, digital platforms, social networks, etc. for many years. These are the things that I do professionally, efficiently, creatively and with pleasure: - post-production for video advertising and cinema (retouching, tracking, keying, compositing, special effects, 2d-3d animation) -creation of motion graphics and animation of any complexity for social networks and streaming platforms - creation of clear, catchy and really working explainers, commercials, corporate films -development of scripts and artistic concepts for CGI products, taking into account the genre and target audience - development of turnkey projects starting from a scenario idea and ending with a completely finished product. Project management, including management of other specialists involved in the project I don’t think there is a task in my professional field that I would consider impossible to implement)

I'm a 3D Motion Designer based in Berlin, working in Cinema 4D with Redshift and Octane. I've created animations for TV commercials and brand campaigns. More → dbesedin.eu My work covers product visualization, CG animation, and motion design for advertising, across TV, social media, and outdoor formats including naked-eye 3D screens. We're a good fit if you need a 3D animator who delivers clean files on time, someone who can jump into an ongoing project and contribute fast, or motion design for product launches, brand campaigns, and commercial advertising. What most 3D designers don't bring: before design, I spent 4 years as an IP lawyer working with Apple, Louis Vuitton, and BMW. This means I understand brand integrity at a level most designers never think about. Your assets are safe, your brand logic is respected, and our agreement is always clear. My stack: Cinema 4D, Redshift, Octane, Plasticity, After Effects, Adobe Suite. I work best on focused, well-defined projects and I'm equally comfortable in early R&D phases where experimentation drives the outcome.
