One such artist is Max Emelyanov, affectionately known to his fans and followers as Lunard Bay. His journey from young video editor to sensational 3D artist isn’t just about talent; It also depends on how much you can achieve when you are passionate and work hard.
Max’s artistic journey began in his adolescence. At just 14 years old, he was introduced to video editing via After Effects, courtesy of his friend Yoav. Hours turned into days as he immersed himself in video editing for the PC game Call Of Duty. While it may seem like child’s play to some, for Max it was a foundation-building experience that honed his skills in effects, colors and integrating 3D elements.
The Israel Defense Forces appealed, as did all young Israelis. For many, it’s a break from personal endeavors. Although many saw it as an obstacle, for Max it became an unexpected platform of inspiration. Within the confines of the barracks, he found a reservoir of creativity that introduced him to the vast world of 3D art.
With the weight of military obligations on his shoulders, Max’s determination led him to venture into the world of “Blender 3D.” What’s truly amazing is how, in the midst of his regimented military life, he launched attention-grabbing projects on platforms like Instagram and YouTube. Industry giants like NvidiaStudio and Blender Nation have recognized and celebrated his art.
Shortly after completing his military service, Max began collaborating with artists on their music videos. He was responsible for the 3D animation of Ben Zini and Ilay Almakys’ music video for the song “Magia Li”, which already has more than 200 thousand views. Additionally, he directed and used 3D techniques in the music video “Til Pazmar” by Israeli hip-hop artist Liad Meir, which now has over 1 million views and has become one of MTV Israel’s top 5 music videos.
Max’s 3D artistic capabilities are not just known to a small group of experts. Many people around the world have seen your work without realizing it. Remember the Sidemen video that had 37 million views? Max made a lot of art with this. What about the amazing visuals from MrBeast’s “Lambo VS Shredder” video with over 100 million views? This was Max’s job too.
But what is the secret behind this meteoric rise? It all depends on your passion, commitment and desire to improve. As Max likes to say: “A man who loves walking will go further than one who loves the destination.” It’s not just about the end goal; It’s about the journey, the early hours, the trials, the mistakes, the moments of doubt and the resulting joy of success.
Max’s journey carries with it a strong message for all artists, whether they are interested in digital art, music or any other form. He shows that obstacles, like military duties or financial problems, are just small parts of a larger story if you really care about what you do.
Today Max Emelyanov is more than just a 3D artist. It shows what can happen when you never give up on your dreams. At 23, Max creates looks for famous people like MrBeast. He proves that you can achieve anything if you have a clear goal and work hard. So start your adventure, follow your heart and remember that success will come to you.
