Maxim Sorokopud's writing work, which spans over 14 years, has directly led to major publicity for a wide range of clients in diverse industries. Since 2015, he has lived in Brooklyn, New York, where his contributions to the arts and communications industries include writing for the world-renowned design journal Graphis Magazine, scripting YouTube videos that gain 1 million-plus views and authoring fact checks that are subsequently cited on the world's most popular websites, including Snopes.
Maxim's first forays into the creative arts took place in the early 2010s in the United Kingdom, where he originally hails from, despite his Eastern European name! In the southwest of England, he joined the media production company LoveLove Films, initially in a freelance role, which transitioned to full-time after he devised and developed the concept for the multi-platinum album-selling musician Joss Stone's most successful music video of all time, The Love We Had, which currently has 12 million views on YouTube and which aired on TV across the globe. Following this achievement, Maxim worked closely with the rest of the LoveLove Films team to produce further music videos, television commercials and more promotional videos than he can remember.
At out of the bleu, Maxim's press release writing and editing skills alone have secured features in both major industry publications, like Broadway World, and local news outlets. Key to this is his ability to tailor messaging in subtle yet effective ways, ensuring that these media placements convey important details with ease.
Happy to write about anything, except his own story.
