Just want to show you one of my "not art works" that l made (as an author and stage director) together with friends-colleagues few weeks ago. This is how we are surviving here in Russia while doing our art videos / films at the same time. It's low budget video, but it was very useful practical training for me. I got a lot of fun and some money from that project. Here we used work of artistical director, professional actors, make-up artist, sound engineer, etc. And Black Magic video camera, cyclorama, space lights, etc. as a technical basis.

“THE GLASS WALL”
Three years ago my colleague had left Moscow and begin to live with her boyfriend in Sweden (Karlshamn). I made a short documentary film “Glass Wall” (5 min.) about it, and for this reason, Sweden has become the first foreign country that I visited. So I can also say that the first real meeting with Europe for me began in Swedish town of Karlshamn...
I think that cinema could be a kind of door through the invisible wall between different cultures. I use "The Glass Wall" as a verbal metaphor of this barrier, consisting of stereotypes, mentality, cultural differences, politics, etc.

Performance In The Abandoned Evangelical Church
Today I found two strange video, that I made for my friends from Madrid in 2013. I guess you can call it video art. In fact it's performance that was captured.
A girl tried to explain me the essence of her performance somehow. She said that every place (space) has a special power. She tries to transmit this energy, her feeling of space through body movements and voice. Her body and voice performs the role of a mediator. It all seemed like some of the methods that psychologists use in the dance movement therapy and actors during actors' training. It looks very strange action for most part of viewers and complete surprise them as I noticed.
Her boyfriend, sound engineer, recorded sound during this perfomance and then he made sound tracks for the video that I filmed for them. Shot on a DSLR camera static shots in very low light.
They chose really interesting places . Both videos were made on Madeira. First clip was recorded at underground grotto of volcanic origin. She spent twenty minutes in the icy water. The second video was made in the abandoned Evangelical Church.

Trip across Greece 2015
3 min. video of my working trip across Greece in May 2015. What is the true reason of crisis in Greece now? Corruption and bad management in the country? Or it is a "defect" of EU management in general? Просто немного Греции.

Beauty And the Melancholy Of Vietnam
This video was made by me two years ago. My friends-videographers were filmed various interesting footages during a trip to Vietnam with two cameras: Mark II and Go Pro. Here I used just standard Adobe Premiere tools for video editing and colour correction.
Now I would be happy to be on the other side of this video ...

Everything Is Just a Dream
The Buddhists say that life is a collective dream, an illusion, a mirage, Maya. Reality does not exist. I am just your dream, and you are just mine. Everything that happens to us is part of the dream, and only few people will wake up and understand that it was all a dream...
