Creative / Director.

That slash between Creative and Director deserves a few words.
When working on short or long form video for Branded content, Interactive Storytelling and Transmedia projects you have to bridge the gap between creative development and production. 
But that title is yet to be invented. Hence the slash and the following breakdown.

Creative. 
∙Working with brands and personalities to tell their stories in a form of interactive video experiences. 
∙Closely cooperating with an R&D department to bring new interactive technologies to storytelling.
∙Generation of ideas and concepts to win new business. 
∙Acting as a mentor and helping develop the growth of associated creatives. 

Director. 
∙Responsible for video from concepts to final execution, moving video through each stage of the project timeline.

Hi, this is a bio, so I want you to know, there's going to be some bragging, but that doesn't mean we still can't be friends. 

Misha is a creative director and commercial comedy director working from NYC. Do we have to even mention award-winning? They even made him a Webby Awards Judge.  

He specializes in web films and spots that feel like entertainment. He wrote and directed mock music videos for Samsung, taught Jennifer Lopez how to pronounce “Azerbaijan” and made talking cheese TikToks for Pinterest. 

In his spare time, he is a founder of a creative studio VeryVertical that will create vertical, and in a surprise twist, horizontal content, that will help you grow your audience through the magic of serialized entertainment. 

Yes, all of this does sound rather peculiar, isn't it great?
