Hello, my name is Alexander. I am a certified 3D animation specialist on Upwork, boasting over 20 years of experience in 3D technologies.

I possess expertise across all these domains, allowing me to manage the entire workflow independently. This comprehensive skill set not only ensures a cohesive and integrated final product but also offers a cost-effective solution compared to hiring multiple specialists. Whether you're launching a start-up or aiming to showcase your product through 3D animation for platforms like Amazon, my capabilities are more than sufficient to meet your needs.

I create cinematic CGI commercials, 3D billboard animations, and FOOH campaigns for brands that want premium visuals with real impact. My background in architecture and audiovisual art shapes the way I work. I approach every project through space, light, rhythm, and emotion - building visuals that feel physically grounded, visually striking, and made to hold attention. I specialize in: • 3D Billboard Animations • FOOH Campaigns • Full CGI Commercials • Product Animation • VFX-Driven Advertising • Creative Direction • Art Direction • Visual Development I work across the full creative process, from concept and visual direction to 3D execution and final delivery. Whether the goal is a viral outdoor illusion, a cinematic product reveal, or a fully CGI brand film, I focus on creating work that feels polished, believable, and emotionally memorable. My approach combines realism with strong visual storytelling. I pay close attention to lighting, composition, materials, motion, and atmosphere so the final result does not just look high-end - it feels intentional. I’ve worked with brands including YSL, Sephora, Samsung, Spotify, Cirque du Soleil, Xiaomi, and Shark Beauty. Clients hire me when they need more than just animation. They need a visual world, a strong concept, and a piece that can carry both aesthetic value and commercial impact. If you’re looking for high-end CGI, 3D billboard content, FOOH visuals, or cinematic creative direction for a campaign, I’d be glad to collaborate.
