As a senior visual effects artist and graphic designer by profession, with over a decade of
professional experience, and a concept artist and gamer by hobby, I am confident enough to
say
that I have developed a very strong affinity and knowledge of computers and their most
intricate
functions. After ascending the hierarchies of companies I have been employed at, I feel
ready
and eager to take on a new challenge.
As an employee, I would describe myself as a
high
performer, adaptable, with unrelenting focus. Whether on a supervisory or subordinate
position,
my pragmatic nature leads me to assign value to my co-workers according to merit, efficiency
and
perseverance.
I have always had a flair for automation and optimization when it
comes to
solving problems, so my current plan is to play to my strengths and expand my knowledge of
programming languages further and move into game, software or web development. I am
currently on
the market, searching for a full-time or part-time position at any type of organization, but
I
also welcome opportunities as a consultant or freelancer.
VFX Paint & Compositing Senior/Lead Artist
FX3X Studio for Visual Effects
Skopje, Macedonia

While starting off as a hobbyist, primarily focused on concept art and matte painting, a job
opportunity presented itself at FX3X, which required that I shift my focus to VFX
compositing. At FX3X I was given the means and resources
to expand my abilities and with the help and mentorship of Zoran
Dimanovski, one of the
company’s
most valued lead artists, I was able to become a fully fledged VFX paint and compositing
artist
with
nearly six years of experience in
the film industry.
My portfolio now includes over forty, full feature films and popular TV shows:
Thor: Ragnarok, Black Panther, Guardians of the Galaxy, Spider man: Homecoming, Batman v
Superman: Dawn of Justice, Star Wars - The Last Jedi & The Rise of Skywalker, Alien:
Covenant, X-Men: Apocalypse, Mission Impossible -

This particular area of expertise also draws its roots from the same hobbies and interests as the visual effects, although with a different flair. My experience in this field begins with my employment at INS Media, a studio for graphic and print design. Here I had the opportunity to learn a lot about digital and offset printing, branding, typography and design in general. I later moved on to work as a freelance graphic designer for online markets like GraphicRiver and Creative Market.

My interest towards personal computers and engineering manifested at very early age. My first successful installation of Windows 95 was at the age of 10, on my old i486. After the excitement caused by the success of that operation, I was certain my career would always revolve around computers.

Programmer
When it comes to development or programming in general, I suspect my personal interest towards well organized systems would keep me on the right track. As a junior programmer with limited experience, I would feel presumptuous, to try to categorize myself as a certain programmer "type". But I am eager for a chance to prove myself as one of the "good" ones.
