I come from Georgia, Europe, where I am actively involved in video games and film industry.

A film by Simon Mozgovyi
Production: Mainstream Pictures,
Music by Zviad Mgebry, Luka Lebanidze
(Sound and music: Postred)
Something that inspires me is that we do not have to perceive music consciously to be reached by it.
We composed the music together with Zviad Mgebry for this short.
All audio is done by Postred.
What excited me the most about modding was building new worlds, and gameplay features and having fun tweaking things to see what happens. I spent most of my childhood building and scripting a player-controlled flying moon fortress. This is how my passion for game development started.
In my second passion - piano, I couldn't focus on the lesson’s material because all I wanted to do was to compose music and experiment. With time I learned that only motivation is insufficient, to achieve competence and excellence tremendous amounts of practice are required.
With my third passion - watercolor, I painted environments for later building via modding. Although it stayed as a hobby it taught me conceptualization.
I understood that to pursue all three interests, I would have to find what mutual feelings all of them cause inside me that would become a guiding light. I had three rabbits and I needed a hat. I dreamed of a career that would use all three of them. Fortunately, a solution came to my mind during a game jam where as a volunteer I composed game music for 9 participant teams. Game Audio career was a way to go.
I got lucky to meet some great people along the way, for whom I am very grateful. One of them is Beso Kacharava who founded POSTRED - the biggest post-production company in Georgia, Europe. Beso is an outstanding sound designer with a unique vision and portfolio - HBO’s EUPHORIA is one of them. Beso became my friend and mentor, he helped me shape my path to Game Audio.
Later I got lucky again and went to Berklee with a full scholarship from the Georgian Government to study master's in Scoring for Films and Video Games, for this I am extremely grateful. After graduation I came back to my country, where I worked on music for more than 200 commercials, 12 games, 2 TV series seasons & 4 movies with an amazing composer Zviad Mgebry at POSTRED. For 3 years this taught me a lot about writing music under pressure and meeting client expectations. I was ready to go back to what I deeply love: Game Audio. All these things set me in the right direction and helped me practice my craft.
Together with Beso Kacharava I co-lead INTERACTIVE which is a Game Audio division of POSTRED. We’ve worked on many amazing projects including AAA, indie games, and audiovisual installations, we have a growing team of amazing young professionals with a spark.
