A programme of work

Pavlo Puzikov. I'm a marketer who makes the work too: launch films, campaign visuals and new ways to show a product, using whatever new technology does the job best.

00 / Programme note

I'm Pavlo Puzikov. I started at Living Homes in Sofia and went on to lead marketing and innovation at BARNES Dubai. There I directed one generative launch film, art-directed another and built a Gaussian-splat research pipeline. Since then I have been freelancing on launch films, one now in production in Sofia, and building Studio, my own film editor.

First visit? Start with these three. The full programme follows them.
