Хочу порекомендовать вам Элен в качестве звукорежиссера на ваши проекты. Мы познакомились в Московской школе кино, где она подхватила очень сложный проект, в котором был практически полностью потерян звук на площадке, и благодаря своему упорству, усидчивости и профессионализму, сумела буквально заново воссоздать весь звук фильма. Также могу отметить личные качества Элен - терпение, отзывчивость, спокойное отношение к работе, доброжелательность, вдумчивость. Ко всему прочему, Элен прекрасный музыкант, что является огромным плюсом при работе со звуком - ей будет несложно решать самые ответственные задачи, поскольку базовое музыкальное образование является большим преимуществом любого звукорежиссера.

I worked with Elen (Elena Zahariuc) during the 2018 FIFA World Cup in the Commentary Switching
Centre. Elen was employed as a Commentary Systems operator during games time, having
previously completed training with HBS.
Elen is a knowledgeable technician with significant experience in sound production and related
areas. As an operator she was reliable, accurate and responsive to her manager and broadcasters.
She has an ongoing interest in all things audio and keeps up to date with technology through online
courses and certification. She has applied her expertise in a number of projects. She is currently
completing a specialist degree at the GITR Institute of Film and Television, having previously
completed a Bachelor Degree at the Moscow State Institute of Music.
It was a pleasure to work with Elen. Her teamwork skills are exemplary. She was always willing to
help others and willing to take responsibility for her own contributions. Her enthusiasm for the work
was infectious and appreciated by all those around her. She has very good communications skills and
a high level of English. This was particularly helpful when translation was required.
Elen possesses well developed personal and professional attributes. She sets high standards for
herself. She has good problem solving skills and is diligent and persistent in achieving robust
outcomes. Elen is a quick and effective learner, and a good listener. She is willing to ask for help
when needed. This learning is driven by her deep curiosity. I have no doubt that she will succeed in
her career.
I have no hesitation in recommending Elen for work in audio, commentary systems or related fields.
Please contact me if you require further information.
