Oleg Kulinich

Director and 3D Visual Researcher

A third of Oleg's apartment consists of LEGO. While working on projects, Oleg focuses on precise details — as if he is assembling his constructor. 3D generalist, CG supervisor, explorer of new software in the studio. A fan of hyperrealism.

— How long have you been working in this field?

2017.

— What’s your job in the studio?

I go through briefs, write treatments, build pipelines, render, give feedback, and sometimes I check on the timelines. Long story short, I work on commercials.

— What do you like about your job?

When the project turns out stunning. Especially if it also has a meaning.

— What do you hate about the job?

When I have to delegate interesting tasks or when I don’t have time for something. Usually, these two are somehow connected.

— What is your dream (if you have one)?

If I didn’t need to earn money, I would have probably been doing something similar: cartoons, but less commercial — something kind and fun.

— What’s your top-3 animation movie recommendation?

I’ll suggest the ones that I wanted to watch again because I don’t remember them well anymore: “Neznajka na Lune (Dunno on the Moon)”, “Cipollino, the Onion Boy”.
