Consultations
My consultations are designed for people in creative industries and their clients. Over several years of consulting, teaching and project management, I have learned to search for contractors, get out of a professional crisis, build and work with teams, make projects without editing, set up a workflow and leave behind motivated and satisfied people. You can contact me on all of these for one or more consultations.

I don’t work with motion, video and 3D. I’m capable of giving you advice and sending you to the specialists. However, I won’t be able to consult you on hard skills.
I’m not a marketer or PR specialist and won’t be able to teach you how you sell your product. But I will give advice on how to make it better and will share my thoughts.
