I am Anatoliy Lavrenishyn, a Ukraine-born director, concept artist, and animator with over two decades of experience in games and animation. Based in Strasbourg, France, I create original visuals and lead teams through full production cycles, from concept to final render. I’ve recently been developing a children’s app called DARLING ZHU using Spine 2D and Unity. For the last few years I’ve collaborated on international projects with AnimaSkil (France-Ukraine), directed the feature film Victor_Robot with Red Dog Studio, and led art direction for cross-media titles like Darling Zhu and UAart. I enjoy shaping a clear visual bible, developing characters, environments, and assets, and I value teamwork, communication, and delivering on time.
