About me

My name is MIRCEA GOIA (first name, last name).

I am interested in commercial Web development (such as social networks, social media, viral marketing, online video, e-commerce, marketplaces) and filmmaking, VFX, photography, travel.

Technology

* Worked at some web projects in the area of e-commerce, customer support, online learning managements systems, websites building.

…and others (some closed).

Photography

I have been interested in photography for a few years and I am doing it as a passion. If you want to see more you can go to my Instagram.

Visual Effects VFX

Being passionate about filmmaking I am now proficient also in Visual Effects using compositing software like Nuke and After Effects.
Also, I am using 3D software like Cinema 4D, simulations software like Houdini and editing software like Adobe Premiere. See below some examples on Vimeo.

Also I worked VFX for some films like below:

Or commercials like “Chris Haroun: Excel Through the Ages”.
