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)
