Hello, friends! My real name is Valera. I’m excited to welcome you to my new blog dedicated to my favorite profession.
I am an Art Director and 3D artist, and I’ve been working in this field for over 10 years. I would like to share with you some of my experiences and achievements.
Like many of you, I taught myself the profession using lessons and resources available online. I had to work hard and use software every day to achieve my goals. I mostly work in Cinema 4D and use the Octane Render rendering engine.

I started my career as a graphic designer in an office where I worked for a year and a half, then moved on to motion design at GroupStar in St. Petersburg, where I worked for a couple of years. However, for most of my career, I have worked as a freelancer. During this time, I have had the opportunity to work with clients such as VIVO, Gazprom, Sberbank, various government organizations, and many other large companies.
Mainly, I specialize in creating television commercials and media content for events, but I also create music videos and special effects for movies. I am convinced that my profession is not only exciting but also very important in the world of modern technology. I hope that my blog will be useful and interesting for you!
