THIS IS MY CREATIVE SPACE.
My portfolio features a diverse range of projects, including classical stop-motion animation, 3D renders, documentary work,
and photography.
I LOVE MIXING DIFFERENT STYLES AND GENRES IN ORDER TO CREATE EFFECTS OF MULTICULTURAL, MULTIDIMENSIONAL DIALOG.
With a BFA and a Master of Arts in Directing, along with an MPS in Virtual Production, my expertise spans both traditional filmmaking and cutting-edge technology. Proficient in both 3D and 2D software, I blend classic storytelling with modern tools to create dynamic,
immersive visuals.

stop-motion, “Into the Womb”, 2020
Logline: A young man retreats to his bathtub, confronting past mistakes and his crumbling identity as his girlfriend decides whether to trust him or terminate her pregnancy.
We built a stop-motion lightbox using wooden boards and glass purchased from a construction market. We designed it with a larger gap between the boards, allowing us to illuminate the paper layers more effectively and create depth through light.
My role was to direct and write the film. The core idea was to tell the harsh and unsettling story of abortion through delicate, fine papercuts, ensuring that the message was conveyed with clarity and impact — without relying on jarring visuals or blood.
We animated our papercuts frame by frame, capturing each shot with a Canon Mark II positioned above the stop-motion lightbox. This setup allowed us to highlight the delicate details of the paper and its texture, creating visually striking images.
Our team put in tremendous effort and successfully achieved its goal, bringing the vision to life with dedication, precision, and a deep appreciation for the art of stop-motion storytelling.
animation, “Regenesis”, 2024
This animation was created using Unreal Engine and Vicon motion capture. The dancers' movements were recorded and integrated into the final animation, set in a 3D forest environment that I built entirely from scratch.
My role in this project involved developing the concept and main idea, editing, motion data retargeting, creating the 3D forest environment, and setting up the lighting for the scene.
It was especially exciting to integrate real dancers' performances into the Unreal 3D world.
short-film, “Echoes of the Corridor”, 2025
Logline: A hardworking New Yorker, haunted by painful memories, reconciles with her past through a surreal journey in an apartment building on the clouds.
The film was entirely produced at the Martin Scorsese Virtual Production Center as part of the MPS program.
We developed our 3D environments from the ground up and crafted the VFX in-house, fully handling every aspect of the production process.
documentary, “Daughter”, 2019
A story about someone often overlooked by ambitious individuals and influential politicians—a single mother raising her four children in a struggling neighborhood, just an hour away from the metropolis. While life in the metropolis rushes forward, she longs to slow down and cherish precious moments with her children. Despite the hardships, nothing is more important to her.
While mother Gulmira is telling her story, our crew is filming the children’s games on the streets. It was a refreshing and immersive experience…
They said “We almost forgot we were shooting, caught up in the joy of playing alongside them. Using random boxes and abandoned furniture as props, they effortlessly sparked our imagination”.
zine, “MARS, BABY”, 2025
The year is 5025. After centuries of nurturing life, incubators have evolved—now, they don’t just sustain babies, they sing to them.
Your little astronaut can enjoy childhood without floating away!
Martian incubator! Life finds a way! Even here…
