I had a pleasure to work with Ilya as a member of my writing team for a long time. Ilya has a very strong cinematic approach to the stories he creates along with a very extensive knowledge of cinematography. I think it`s the only person in our team that can name creative approach specifics for every director in The X-Files TV series. His specs were full of rich visual details and very precise references. Also I can`t but mention how wide is his knowledge of different fandoms - especially Star Wars. Ilya easily holds all the wiki`s in his head and can quite it by heart. Being an open-hearted, conflict-free person, Ilya is also very helpful in communication field (especially with franchise fans), treating everybody with an great respect.
