For Viktor, editing is akin to the work of a sculptor: you give shape to chaos, arranging elements in such a way as to create the desired image in the viewer's mind, influencing their feelings and emotions. You affect people's perception, which is both a huge responsibility and an opportunity to create entire worlds, the existence of which we may not have even suspected.

For his participation in the short film "Muse 2022," Viktor has been honored with several awards for Best Editing at international film festivals.

Viktor's philosophy of work is characterized by a continuous pursuit of self-improvement. He believes that when you surprise yourself, it's a sign that you're on the right path.

"The essence of making films is discovering new things in what is already known and familiar; it's a constant journey of self-discovery and surprise." - Stanley Kubrick.
