Vadim Commissar Biography
Vadim Komissaruk is a creative producer, screenwriter, founder of the bullfinch film school. We will talk about him today. Vadim Komissaruk is a creative producer, screenwriter, head of the bullfighting school from Gomel to Moscow or as a builder engineer became a creative producer of the most popular television projects. Vadim was born in Gomel. This is such a city in Belarus.
At the moment, Moscow is almost twenty times more. At that time, the task from Gomel to get to Moscow to work on television seemed cosmically sky -high. How, with whose help, what should be done? Then everything was not entirely clear. At what point did you understand that you are a screenwriter? I read under the blanket with a flashlight after the end - yes, I was the personification of this story.
Then he began to compose something himself and wrote it down on a tape recorder - such a romance. I will say more, I did not know about the profession of the screenwriter at that time. And even if I knew. Who at all at seventeen knows what he wants to do, where to work? Moreover, there were no options in the family of teachers: higher education is a minimum program. And where to go?
Since I did not find my own, it was still, I went to the builder-builder. At that time, I already began to understand that my business should be connected with something creative, but with what? I had no idea. I finished his studies, but rather, so as not to go into the army. In student teams first. And it was a great school, the best, probably, a way to interact with the viewer: you see a reaction directly on the stage, liked it or not, funny or not really.
In this regard, KVN was a window into the world of television, many scriptwriters with academic education complain that KVNSHERS captured the entire broadcast, they are everywhere, now because of them they can’t break anywhere. But we really had what they were told only in theory, we had direct contact with the viewer, there, standing on the stage, we studied, noted, noticed, remembered.
We felt the soil, let's say so. Well, in general, it’s no secret that ninety percent of the graduates of the scenario and directorial faculties of VGIK are not working in their specialty. It generally seems to me that it is better to become a screenwriter at a later age, when there is some kind of life experience. You can study at a needy structure anywhere, but an unusual experience that will be interesting to someone else needs to be acquired.
KVN helps to connect to the mass viewer, who is just interesting to the industry. And besides the fact that the audience reaction is an instant returns, an objective assessment of your work, humor and work done, KVN still teaches a lot. This is the ability to improvise. This is a skill to create, even if it does not happen. After all, there are Deadlins in the form of festivals and performances - you have to be prepared for them whether the muse visited you or not.
And for several years you have been living in such a rhythm, you have fallen, without getting a salary, you study, constantly grow in the head of the scenarios of the following performances, think through jokes. Yes, not even just for free, you yourself should be spent on this - travel, props, accommodation in other cities, tickets are back and forth, respectively, but you continue to do it, because you simply cannot live without it.
There I saw just how people get on TV. And then I realized that it was not cosmically transformed, but, nearby, absolutely real. The process itself is interesting. It doesn’t matter where you come from, who you are, from anywhere in the world you can send letters to several people at once, and they will receive them within a few seconds. He blurred the boundaries between cities and countries.
It is now possible to send the script at once to several people at once, all of them, again, if you wish, you can find both contact, and it does not matter who you are, where are you from. That's exactly how I started working with producers, I just sent my work, sent it, while I lived in Gomel. To the question of whether it is possible to become a scriptwriter without living in Moscow - the only question is how much it wants.
I’m not just saying all the time that this is absolutely real, it is my personal experience. Without education, a diploma by specialty, without connections, relatives and other things. There was no magic, everything is just like that and difficult at the same time. He worked in a large film company, received feedback - my teachers were wonderful. Sometimes there was a feeling that there was not enough specialized education, but at VGIK it was a long time to study, it would take a lot of time, and there were a lot of private film schools, they raised questions.
As a result, he studied on his own mistakes, stuffed cones, constantly read books on scenario skills, listened to every word of senior comrades of producers, editors, more experienced authors, studied in the way, we can say - immediately in the audience, made conclusions, looking at the ratings and comments on the Internet.
And from the scriptwriter-freelancer gradually grew into a creative producer. Vadim Komissarruk. Interview with radio stations in Tallinn. And he told everything that he learned, sent them different tasks, gave feedback on them, explained, taught, pulled it out.He attracted to the real projects that he worked on, and also helped, directed, edited. As a result, about 10 more from Gomel did not become engineers, economists or railway workers, but became professional authors and moved to Moscow.
Then it all began. I realized that I can help people reveal my potential to people and most importantly - I am interested. I rejoice for each of them. A little later, when friends who did not find themselves ended, I could no longer help, and therefore the idea of a film school was born. It is very important for me to share experience and convey to other beginner authors, that now everything has become so close, you just need to start and do.
I would like to help those who, like me, at the age of seventeen did not know what kind of profession this is a screenwriter. Those who still believe that everything decides on specialized education or family ties. Help find your own business and find yourself in this matter. Graduates of the Westerni film school after pitching.
