Music video created for NEONOVAYA AURA.

My goal was to capture the song’s romantic, fairytale atmosphere and create a unique, memorable world.

The music video tells the story of a very tiny girl who dreams of growing taller and finding love. She sets off on a journey through vast, oversized worlds in search of a magical butterfly whose wings can make anything grow larger with a single touch.

The main challenge was designing and building the imaginative world through which the protagonist travels.

This project gave me the opportunity to let my imagination run wild and see the familiar world from a completely different perspective—through the eyes of a tiny bug.

I truly enjoyed bringing this imaginative world to life, and my client was equally delighted with the final result.

This animated film was inspired by the short story of the same name by Andrei Bitov.

The film tells the story of a lonely man who, while reading a magazine and drifting into his imagination, comes across a spread titled «Wait for Me.» Suddenly, a family that never existed begins to emerge from the magazine pages.

My goal was to highlight the contrast between the protagonist’s solitary existence in a small apartment and his inner world—a realm where magazine cutouts transform into dreams of a family he never had. The protagonist’s daily life is rendered in black and white, while the magazine clippings and the imagined family burst into vibrant life through colorful collages.

The main challenge was developing a consistent visual language for the collage figures and the magazine itself, all while translating the postmodern ideas of the original story into an animated film.

The film was selected for the programs of several animation festivals, including SuzdalFest, Insomnia, and Zharki.
