Custom tools I build with AI to automate repetitive tasks, speed up editing, and leave more time for creative decisions.
A professional automation tool for working with Artlist.io. Download music and videos in a single click, convert them automatically to high-quality editing formats (WAV and Apple ProRes), and import them instantly into active projects in Adobe Premiere Pro or After Effects.
Unzip the archive. Open the folder, find the install.ps1 file, right-click it, and select
"Run with PowerShell". This will configure PlayerDebugMode in the registry and
automatically symlink the panel directory to the system Adobe CEP extensions folder. Restart Premiere
Pro / After Effects.
On the Premiere Pro panel (Window -> Extensions -> VS Art Link), click "Show Chrome
Ext" under the Settings & Tools section. Open Google Chrome, navigate to
chrome://extensions/, enable "Developer mode" in the top-right corner, and drag and drop
the extension folder into the browser window.
Open the panel in Premiere Pro. If a red FFmpeg Required warning is shown, click the button "Download & Install FFmpeg (Auto)". The panel will automatically download the binary, and the status indicator will turn green (Local FFmpeg).
Ensure the extension panel in Adobe is open, and both Server and FFmpeg indicators are green. On Artlist.io, hover over videos or play any audio to see the import buttons (to PR, to AE). Clicking them will automatically download, convert, and place the file directly in your active project timeline!
An intelligent project editing time tracker for Adobe Premiere Pro. Automatically records active editing time, tracks work on individual sequences, and provides a beautiful interactive dashboard with productivity statistics.
Unzip the downloaded ZIP archive. Inside, locate install.ps1, right-click it, and choose
"Run with PowerShell" (Run with PowerShell). The script will enable PlayerDebugMode in
the registry and automatically link the folder to the Adobe CEP directory.
Restart Premiere Pro. Open the extension panel from the top menu: Window -> Extensions -> Sequence Time Tracker (or huTime).
The tracker automatically detects the open project and active sequence, displaying editing duration in real time. The Statistics tab displays detailed history and graphs of your activity across projects.
A powerful ScriptUI tool for configuring procedural wiggle animations in Adobe After Effects. Quickly apply, loop, or delete wiggle on Position, Scale, Rotation, and Opacity properties, link parameters to sliders, and "bake" oscillations into keyframes.
Unzip the archive and copy the VShiggle.jsx file to your After Effects scripts folder:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects <Version>\Support Files\Scripts\ScriptUI Panels\
After restarting After Effects, the panel will appear under the Window -> VShiggle.jsx menu and can be docked anywhere in the UI.
In After Effects, navigate to File -> Scripts -> Run Script File... and select the
downloaded VShiggle.jsx.
Select layers or specific properties on the timeline, choose a preset or adjust frequency and amplitude, and click Apply. Use the Bake button to convert expressions into standard keyframes.

Here is a little more about me. I was born on July 16, 1987, in Leningrad. Besides editing, music, and design, I am also a healthy pastry chef — making sugar-free desserts. However, desk work takes up so much time that I currently bake only for myself and loved ones :)
Worked for 1.5 years as a lighting and sound technician with theater and film actor Albert Makarov in a one-man show based on Edward Radzinsky's play:
"The Last Night of the Last Tsar"
Watch on YouTubeThe video is of questionable quality, but as they say, you get what you get. I didn't shoot it.
I also have two years of experience working as an actor in a children's theater. A brief highlight of my stage work:
Pardon the detour, but I couldn't resist including this snippet, this short film is delightful :)) In reality, it was incredibly fun and exciting — usually, in the 3 weeks leading up to New Year, we had 7-8 performances a day.
