Who am I?
Hi there! My name is Anton Dessov(Tony), born in Bulgaria. I am currently working in Ubisoft Sofia and my passion is to create all kinds of games. To be precise, my passion is to entertain and make people happy. So I use everything I know and learn to try and create a fun experience for all the players out there in the world!

Area of
|
I've always been fascinated by the elemental forces and alchemy, that's why I also work with VFX. Creating particles and effects is something that is important in every game for both visual and feedback purposes. Recreating natural phenomenons or completely new ones is always a fun task.
I love setting the mood for my games and that's why I like working with lighting. Lighting is a crucial element in any artistic media, because when done properly it can have a great impact on the game. It is not only an artistic thing, but it requires some physics and mathematics knowledge. But lighting isn't the only thing that sets the mood - the music as well. That's why I love working on the combination between sound and light - getting those two right, gets you immersed the most and that's what I am mostly looking into. Finally I also work as an art lead usually as well - dealing with the team, setting tasks, communication between departments, creative problem solving - I enjoying doing all of that. Being part of the central core of a project and taking that responsibility is something I also believe I can handle and that's why I am eager to do it. |
