Background

About Ivan Flugelman

As a constantly curious individual, I explore the dynamic and innovative world of design and technology. My background includes working on global rebranding projects for big names like Sony and MTV, and doing design work for various well-known clients like Robbie Williams, Fox Entertainment, DW, Lady Gaga, and more. I served as a Director for animated projects at top German production houses like OPTIX and Sehsucht, where I also helped expand their reach into the American and Chinese markets with projects for The Boston Celtics and OPPO x League of Legends, respectively. With a business degree and a strategic mindset, I understand the needs of clients and decision-makers. I have also worked as a consultant for artists, managing projects for Emmy-winning show "Severance" for Apple TV+. My expertise in the startup world includes serving as 3D Lead and Art Director at Colorful.app, where I helped build a browser-based application for real-time 3D photography. I have a thorough understanding of the NFT and web3 space, including its potential and limitations, as well as a deep knowledge of production processes related to animation, visual effects, and web implementation. Currently, I am creating metaverse experiences at Journee for clients like BMW, where I was responsible for leading a team that built the first-ever metaverse inside a car and delivering the highly successful "Joytopia: A Quest to Dee" experience at CES 2023 for the launch of BMW's new Vision car "DEE" featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
