This week I uploaded some of my works. 🔥
I’m Ilia, a video editor, colorist and cinematographer with 20+ years in the field. Editorial work for Vogue, Esquire, The Rake, SHOWstudio. Based in Montenegro, shooting across the Balkans and UAE. Fashion films, brand campaigns, music videos.
More work going up this week. If you’ve been here longer, what else helped your profile get seen?
Congrats on getting the portfolio up, Ilia! 🎬 That Vogue and Esquire-level editorial polish on the fashion film cuts is exactly what makes a reel pop 🔥
To celebrate, I didn't want a generic thank-you graphic, so I algorithmically arranged 49 tiles of my actual shipped work (Palm, Direct Edits, and recent client builds) into the number 100 using parametric squircle math.
Huge thank you to everyone following the journey, supporting my work, and trusting me to build fast, clean web apps that actually look good.
We’re just getting started. Onto the next milestone! 🚀
