About

Hi, I’m Emil Dimitrov Sergiev, an animator and visual effects professional based in Sofia. I spent over a decade as a 3D Animator at Ubisoft Sofia and trained at NATVIZ and the National Theater and Film Academy in Sofia. I worked with studios such as Amblimation, Walt Disney, Warner Bros, and Jim Henson’s Creature Shop in the UK, building a strong foundation in 2D/3D animation and character design.

After returning to Bulgaria, I led art teams as a VFX Supervisor and continued shaping projects in the motion picture industry. I’m passionate about mentoring, exploring new techniques in VFX, and sharing knowledge with the next generation of artists.
