My name is Vladislav 'Kulizayo' Petrov and my journey in motion graphics and visual effects commenced around 2002. As a born artist with a profound affinity for the cinematic universe, I have ventured into the realms of amateur photography, filmmaking, and of course I have done some old school flipbook animation.

My education at the National School of Fine Arts not only nurtured an exquisite sense of aesthetics, composition and color harmony, but also equipped me with versatile skills to manifest my visions with clarity and expressive power.

Subsequent training in puppetry at the National Academy of Theatre and Film Arts taught me the art of breathing life into the inanimate and honed my acting talent, bringing characters and stories to life with humor, depth and authenticity.

From the moment my father bought me my first computer, my passion for computer graphics took root deeply within me, blossoming into a lifelong pursuit of artistic and technical mastery. Soon my journey took a pivotal turn when the esteemed directors Lachezar Avramov and Milko Lazarov invited me to join their Studio 42. Within the inspirational environment of their video production studio, I was not merely a participant but a collaborator on several of the most prestigious projects of Bulgarian National Television. Here, amidst the whirlwind of creativity and innovation, I honed my craft, learning the aesthetic nuances and technological intricacies that only a real production environment can teach. Meanwhile, collaboration with fellow theatre academy students birthed the artistic phenomenon Mangasarian Bros. Beyond my technical skills, this venture showcased my ability to craft compelling narratives, write lyrics, and contribute to building and maintaining a brand that resonates with a wide audience.

I relish in the challenge of creating expressive visual artworks that speak volumes in simplicity and character. My passion extends beyond creation; I am a perpetual learner, constantly exploring new software and techniques to push the boundaries of what can be achieved in the digital world.

The journey from a curious child to a seasoned professional in the ever-evolving landscape of computer graphics and video post-production has been exhilarating. Yet, for me, the pursuit of excellence is ceaseless. With every project, I strive to not only meet but exceed expectations, ensuring that each creation is a masterpiece that stands testament to a lifetime of passion and dedication.
