I have been working in the game industry since 2019 developing gameplay systems, prototyping, and real time visuals. In that time I deployed mobile, VR and desktop projects, contributing both to new features and live products where iteration and reliability were key. Over time, I moved towards the technical art side of development. I enjoy working on shaders, VFX, and anything between code and visuals. Especially when it helps the project feel more responsive and polished. I can jump into existing projects, understanding how things are build, and improving them without over-complicating the pipeline. Whether it's building a system from scratch or refining what's already there, I focus on practical solutions ready to ship.

Built a great SaaS product… but struggling to explain it clearly? I help SaaS companies turn complex products into clear, high-converting videos that users instantly understand and engage with. I specialize in creating: • SaaS explainer videos • Product demo & onboarding videos • UI/UX animations (Figma to motion) • High-end product & technical animations Unlike most motion designers, I don’t just animate. I combine motion design, cinematic visuals, VFX, and 3D techniques to create videos that look premium, feel modern, and clearly communicate your product’s value. With experience in motion graphics, VFX, and product animation, I’ve delivered high-quality work for clients who needed both strong visuals and clear storytelling. Clients choose to work with me because I focus on: • Simplifying complex ideas • Making products easy to understand • Creating visuals that capture attention • Delivering polished, professional results I handle the full process from start to finish: • Concept & scripting • Storyboarding • Animation (2D, 3D, UI, motion graphics) • VFX & compositing • Sound design & final delivery Every video I create is designed to improve user understanding, increase engagement, and help your product convert better. If you need a SaaS or product video that actually explains and sells your product, send me a message and let’s get started.

I specialize in complex cleanup work, including wire removal, rig removal, object removal, clean plate creation, and frame-by-frame sequence paint. I deliver seamless, production-quality cleanup while preserving the original plate detail, motion, texture, grain, lighting, and natural look. My VFX Cleanup Services Include: • Wire and rig removal • Object and unwanted element removal • Crew and camera equipment removal • Clean plate creation • Logo and text removal • Dust, dirt, scratch, and artifact cleanup • Reflection and shadow cleanup • Beauty cleanup and skin retouching • Environment cleanup and restoration • Complex frame-by-frame paint work Software: Nuke, Silhouette, Mocha Pro, Photoshop, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, ComfyUI, and Blender. I can handle challenging shots involving camera movement, parallax, motion blur, occlusions, reflections, changing light, and complex backgrounds.

If you have a cleanup shot or full sequence, feel free to send me the footage. I can review the material and suggest the most effective workflow before starting. For new clients, I’m happy to provide a short free test on a small section of the footage, so you can evaluate the quality of my work before hiring.
