Education

My formal education includes Master Degree in Media Arts and Communication from UTS, Sydney (2006) and a Bachelor Multimedia from Monash University in Melbourne (2004). In addition I have studied in music schools in Bulgaria and in Norway until the age of 16. After I finished high school, I decided to explore new academic directions and I spent a couple of years in the University of Oslo completing courses in English and Computer Science. 

Motion design

I entered the motion design industry many summers and winters ago, namely in 2006. Since then, I have worked on a vast variety of projects for many excellent production houses mainly in Sydney. You can find a detailed list of those here. I love bringing designs to life through animation, obsessing about the perfect motion, solving creative and technical issues and bringing to completion the puzzle of million layers that every video project consists of. Having an understanding of video production has given me a whole new universe of expression and understanding within my artistic journey.

Music

I started playing the piano at the age of 6. I can't quite remember not playing or singing songs, not that I have a wonderful voice. In that sense, music has a more intimate edge to me, something that is just there rather than the creative tool for artistic expression. That said, I love performing and composing. Though I started learning music on acoustic piano and later learnt to play guitar I also developed an avid interest in digital music. That opened up a whole new world and taught me a lot about the science of sound. All of that allowed me to add music production and sound design as part of my professional arsenal.
