When I was a little boy, the Lord of the Rings universe consumed me whole. Books were read out many times, and scenes from movies were played out with friends in the yard :)
I have always dreamed of touching this great universe and I was given this opportunity. Together with my team at PLAYSENSE, we made a CGI trailer for the game GOLLUM, which premiered at the Game Awards. It was an unforgettable immersion into the world of childhood and I am grateful to everyone who helped along the way.
Rediscover the MONOPOLY you love in a way you’ve never seen before. With shorter rounds, race other players across the chaotic streets of Monopoly City, collect resources, buy and upgrade properties, mess with your opponents and avoid their tricks to win the race for riches.
I am really proud of our new Announce Trailer for MONOPOLY MADNESS from Ubisoft. It was an amazing adventure, where every second of work brought me real pleasure.
Happy to share with You exciting news that World of Tanks has partnered with Sony Pictures Entertainment to bring in-game top Amazon Show “The Boys”, which is now in its full swing with Season 2! Butcher, Mother’s Milk, Hughie and Frenchie have been hard at work adding their own unique twist to their newest, and ultimate, boys’ toy. Each of them has added some of their own personal items to the style so anything and everything can be found on here, from Butcher’s iconic crowbar to Frenchie’s makeshift cell.
You know what they say: “Heroes aren’t born, they’re made”, and they’re ready to be made on the World of Tanks battlefield.
It's cool when life gives you challenges and constantly tests you. You feel like a hero of the game, completing more and more complex quests. It forces you to learn, grow and constantly adapt. After all, even more difficult challenges are waiting for you in the future and you need to be ready for them.
Together with my team of 25 artists, we did almost the impossible - a 2-minute full CG cinematic of 23 shots, 107 seconds of character animation, 5 characters with unique rigs and 24 unique FXs in just 2 months. Thousands of hours of hard work and creativity, hundreds of tasks and calls, compromises, solutions and the best team that worked side by side with me. And it was worth it. And I will not get tired of repeating that the people who work with me are the most valuable resource that we have in our team. No matter what country and how many kilometers separated us, no matter that everyone worked remotely, no matter what difficulties arose, we all went to the goal together, as one whole, as one team.
Something sinister is happening in the town of Mirny-13. Monstrous tanks are appearing out of nowhere to sow death and destruction. Only our team knows what this hideous place conceals—as they have been working on the atmospheric video below for countless hours. I proudly present you "The Survivor's Story" which sets the mood for this year's Halloween event.

Full CG trailer for the announcement of a new mobile game. I worked with the talented team from the Agency of Wargaming, and also learned a new profession as a producer-stuntman, making my debut as a mocap-actor. It turned out not only to save on the budget but also to make a great team-building on the set. :)
The first mini-series in the World of Tanks universe. Every year, the line between movies and games blurs more and more. And complex projects always challenge and motivate to create new innovations. In this project, we were able to combine live shooting and game engine gameplay. All the gameplay scenes were created without the use of CG. This accelerated production time, reduced the budget, and opened up new ideas and opportunities for the series.
All 5 episodes can be viewed here:
Pagan Online is a fast-paced hack-and-slash action RPG set in a fantasy universe that is inspired by Slavic myths.
You may notice the lyrics above are from 'Aces High', Iron Maiden's most famous song about war, which was written about the Battle of Britain. I am pleased to announce that we have released a music video collaboration for this iconic song that features graphics from the World of Warplanes engine as well as planes that took part in the Battle of Britain.
