Profile
I'd describe myself as highly creative, open-minded, and responsible. Being an avid observer, I always try to keep up with the market and adjust my approach accordingly. My experience includes pretty much working in all sides of production, starting with PA, and ending with training group of directors and video editors. I grew up in Ukraine, where I worked as a Senior Director on national TV station. In 2014, I decided to move to New York, where I gained experience in various industries including fashion, film, and advertising. As a head of video production at Cools.com, I managed contributors from all over the world,this position also allowed me to collaborate with marketing and sales team to create branded content. My day-to-day responsibilities included creating mood boards, guiding talents on shoots, and achieving the best image in post production. Finlay this year I move to Dallas, TX where I landed a job as a Marketing Producer at one of the most decorated local news stations in the country, WFAA. During my short period of working there, I was able to direct an EMMY nominated promo in the same year.
