Viktor Petrov, Piper I/O Founder & Developer

Hello there!

Piper I/O is a boutique software development, technical art, and consulting company founded by me, Viktor Petrov. With over a decade of industry experience, I have had the great privilege of working on numerous films, TV shows, and interactive projects.

Starting out as a CG artist, I transitioned into a technical director and eventually a pipeline supervisor. Working at leading VFX and animation studios worldwide has given me unique insight into collaboration across both creative and technical departments, and developing efficient workflows and tools to help media production teams of all sizes and budgets achieve outstanding results.

With my experience working on Oscar-nominated and Emmy-winning projects and know-how from some of the best creative powerhouses out there, I have distilled my pipeline development skills and expertise into the services offered by Piper I/O. My aim is to support you with the technical heavy lifting in CGI production so that you can focus on creating outstanding art and completing your next project on time and on budget.
