The famous Ukrainian video clipmaker: Katya Tsarik


Ukraine's most famous video clipmate Katya Tsarik dreams of shooting a feature film about love, finishing the repair and giving birth to a baby.
Katya is the only Ukrainian video clip maker. Her talent and an exact female look at the direction were already appreciated by Ani Lorok, Gaytana, Anna Sedakova, Evgenia Vlasova, Natalia Mogilevskaya and Philip Kirkorov, the Sky group, Green Gray and many others.


Starting her career as a director on the 1 + 1 channel, this girl was confidently walking along the winding road to success. Even then, she was making plans to implement her own projects. And fortune, as you know, smiles at those who insistently go to their goal. For several years she won the love of Ukrainian performers, and fans of music videos are eagerly awaiting her new creations. Katya is not going to stop there, and she herself writes the script for her debut film.
Katya, many people did not think about such success at such a young age. Tell me, what do you dream about?
Thanks for the kind words, but I would like to achieve more. I dream of making a good movie and being in a whirlwind of events. But most importantly, I really want to become a mother. Will this wonderful desire soon come true?

So far, I do not foretell anything in advance, because Yura and I are just finishing "conjuring" over our apartment. It will finally be only our home, and therefore, we will enjoy a little privacy. Although in such a cozy atmosphere everything can happen much faster.
Once Leonid Agutin said that women only spoil the music. Katya, what do you think about such a bold statement?
I think that men and women supplement and inspire each other for all sorts of accomplishments, which, perhaps, even to our minds, could not have come without the influence of the opposite sex. That is why we are sometimes better not to be on their ships and not climb into their scores. But they also need to give us freedom, but can they? (Smiling.)
You were not scared to climb the career ladder, where you were surrounded by some men?

Sometimes it seemed to me that my professionalism is not very much trusted. But each time it turned out that I had invented all this "distrust" myself. After working a little longer, I realized that what I was really afraid of was my highlight. Many artists are interested in women's view of art. In this there is some odds, the charm of a woman who is engaged in a "male" profession. They say, for example, that a woman should cook. With what kind of thing, you ask? In olden times, only men were cooks. This is already now women have mastered most of the professions, which from time immemorial were considered purely masculine. Everything changes, time does not stand still. And we are developing with time.
Is it sometimes that I want to give up everything and just be a "couch cat" for a few weeks?

It happens, of course , I'm a woman after all (laughs)! But for a long time I'm not lying on the couch. Two days maximum - and I'm already starting to look for notebooks, laptop and mobile. My favorite vacation is with my parents in a cozy country house, with a mug of coffee and milk on a flower couch ... And so, having relaxed, look the "Pokrovsky Gate" for the hundredth time. This is my favorite film, I'm ready to watch it several times in a row - this is such a chic performance of actors!
Tell us who owns your heart. It is known that you work together. Do not you get tired of each other? Are there quarrels?
We studied with Yuri King in one institute, and for many years together. From the first day of our acquaintance, we literally felt that we understand each other from a half-word. We like to work together. Yura is very in demand now as a professional and just disappears on the set, and I, respectively, on their projects. It turns out that we only see each other in the evenings and early in the morning, so we have time to get really bored of each other. It's easy for Yura and me to keep silent together. And as for our quarrels, it is always very entertaining occasional witnesses.

I know that you plan to try yourself in the role of director of feature films. Tell us a little about this project. With whom will you work, what genre do you plan to shoot?
While I'm working on a script for the film, it's too early to disclose all the information. I will only say that I want to make a very tender and touching film about love. About me, about you, about us, about everyone.
Katya, you are friends with Alan Badoev. Now he is already working on his second feature film. Does he advise you something based on his experience? Or are you totally relying on your strengths?
While I'm writing a story, so to speak, its foundation, I create a style. When the work is finished, I will connect a group of writers to write dialogues and to test dramatic lines. I base myself on my experience and my feelings, so I write it only as I want it. As for the advice - I try to listen to my inner voice. So far, he has never failed me.
Did not you think of trying as an actress? If so, which director?

I really dream about it! I see myself in dramatic roles, although I can also amuse my friends (laughs). As for the director, I would like to play in the works of Valery Todorovsky, Philip Jankowski. I highly respect these directors, screenwriters, producers for their tremendous talent and skills.
Now many public people participate in all sorts of shows and programs, such as "Who is against blondes?", "Dancing with the Stars", etc. Would you like to take part in such projects, too?
I really love to dance, and therefore among all the projects I'm more impressed with the dance. It so happened that I rarely watch TV, so I do not know all the projects. I can only say one thing: the more quality projects on television, the better. Let the audience have fun, watching bright shows, than terrible soap operas. And not only on television, fresh ideas and their qualitative implementation are needed. Many stupidities now appear, which clog up the time and the heads of people.
Tell us about the impressions of the wedding ceremony Ani Lorak. Was it difficult to work on the production, what was remembered?

Together with Caroline we registered everything together, coordinated every detail of the holiday. The very celebration was wonderful! It could not be otherwise, since Carolina and Murat are all that was needed for this action. They were so happy and harmonious that no fireworks, trick or directorial move could eclipse this radiance. Therefore, there was a desire to make the ceremony in a classical style, without any crazy special effects, so I did. I really liked the action on the stage, when the impromptu from guest stars began. It was so real, soulful and fun!
Clips and staging are different things, but if you choose, which is more close to you in spirit?
Of course, I like to make clips, but projects of this kind are also a great pleasure for me. I'm a director, which means I'm inspired by any tasks!
The famous Ukrainian video clipmate Kati Tsarik also has another dream: to learn how to ride a horse professionally. Katya hopes that in the near future there will be more time to fulfill her dream.
