Profile!
I have been an Art Director, Sound Designer, Film & TV Editor, Compositing Artist, 2D and 3D Animator, Graphic and Motion Designer for 10 years, and have acquired many creative skills and a lot of experience in most fields of the creative media industry.

-
One of those albums that you can listen to over and over again... and every time you can hear something new. Love it!
-
Chick Corea changed my approach to music listening in many ways. This album is my favorite … don`t know why…
-
A was amazed! The only way to describe it is as if Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven worked together on a single peace… Don`t you agree?
-
Easy listening and emotional, swaying between jazz and pop. Great one!
-
Maybe the best thing that happened to rock `n` roll in the past few years … but that just my opinion.
-
Nice haircut! :)

I still can clearly remember the concert in Belgrade Arena. Love to see them again soon…

Movies I Love
-
This is one of my favorites! Every shot with almost still photo quality, full of details, beautiful BW grade...
-
-
This one made me speechless. Don`t know why. Just did.
-
I had so much fun watching this movie. It`s far from "best ever" but it makes you smile and feel good just by looking into some strange people's lives! :)
-
Gattaca is a brilliant under-rated piece of cinema with phenomenal soundtrack. Not to be missed!
-
This is one of the most touching pieces of art I have ever seen. Go see this masterpiece and be amazed yourself.
Just a few more words
These movies definitely haven’t changed the world, but I think that if you are into moving pictures art, you will at least find them interesting. I deliberately skipped world classics and all-time favs. Hopefully, you will enjoy all!
Artists I admire
-
Pat Metheny is one of the all-time great jazz guitarists and maybe the most influential musicians. For my 10th birthday I got my first Metheny record - Still Life (Talking). I`m following his work ever since.
-
Paolo Uccello was an Italian painter and a mathematician (born Paolo di Dono, 1397). In my opinion, hi was the creator of 3DS Max and Maya 600 years before it’s` time! Don’t you agree?
-
Hard decision to make: playing it or listening to it? What do I like the best?
-
"The only difference between me and a madman is that I'm not mad."

...
(Eventually, I will come up with something clever to say. Enjoy!)
