Vytautas Kazlauskas

Vytautas Kazlauskas was born in Vilnius, Lithuania in 1988. During the school years, he got interested in video making, when with friends started capturing their own stories on films. The hobby soon turned into a job, when they acquired more and more interest from companies, to create short commercial clips and established their small advertising agency “Bannana”. Vytautas was left responsible for post-production, where he found his true passion - animation and visual effects. During his studies in an advertisement, he started working for film postproduction studio “Kino komanda” which soon merged with another visual post-studio “Madstone” where he currently works as VFX supervisor and animator. During his years as a VFX artist and supervisor, Vytautas was creating short animated stories about robots and dystopian worlds. In 2018 he came up with an idea for the short animated film “Blue Moon” on which he worked for almost three years together with the "Madstone" team. At the moment, Vytautas is developing future film ideas and is thinking about creating a VFX-heavy feature film.
