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.

in the harsh port town of Tiksi on the coast of the Arctic Ocean. The grandeur of the icy expanses and the silence of the Arctic desert shaped his unique perception of the world, helping him to focus on emotions and spiritual aspects of human personality.
Viktor Bazov was born in 1989
Since childhood, Viktor has been enchanted by the magic of cinema, like the mysterious light of a lighthouse illuminating his path. His first steps in the art of editing began with videotapes: he recorded movies from television broadcasts, cut out commercial breaks, and created compilations of cartoons. In his youth, he became passionate about music, playing in underground rock bands and immersing himself in the diversity of musical genres. This experience formed his refined musical taste and deep understanding of how music and visual imagery can harmoniously interact, creating unique artistic forms.
Over the past decade, Viktor has realized numerous projects using audiovisual tools. He has worked as a cameraman, live broadcast director, photographer, motion and VFX designer, and has also produced several video projects as the producer. However, his primary professional passion is editing.
