Biography
My name is Nikolay Stanchev and I'm 21 years old. I am from Bulgaria and I am a third year student with Cinema and TV in New Bulgarian University. I am currently working as a Video editor in the biggest online learning platform in Bulgaria ,,Ucha.se". Along with video editing, I also studied many other 3D software (Cinema 4D,Maya,Blender) and mainly SideFX Houdini. I'm currently training to be a Procedural Technical Artist and FX Artist. I have been working with Houdini for two years and dare to say that I have good skills in understanding Houdini workflow. I have completed The VFX School - SideFX Houdini TD Program. I also completed one year graphic design course in Software University in Bulgaria and I am currently a mentor. Now I have my own graphic design interns. Since the beginning of the year I am a member of the recently created Academy for Game Developers in Bulgaria - ARC Academy that was created by Anthony Christov (Director of Academic Studies, teacher - Art director and Production designer - PIXAR Studios). With hard work and perseverance I was one of the first elected members of the academy. In ARC I am trained by the best specialists in the game industry in Bulgaria (Ubisoft, Gameloft, Creative Assembly, Snapshot). Last summer I was an intern at the Nu Boyana Film Studios(Millennium Films) and gradually became a Motion Graphic Designer with Adobe After Effects and Cinema 4D in movie Kung Fury 2.
