When older people talk about their happy childhood in Soviet times, they do not cheat. The memories are truly trustworthy. Roman Viktorovich Fokin shares his impressions of his pioneering affairs with enthusiasm, interest and conviction. His childhood was truly cloudless. The boy was born on March 15, 1965 in a family of technical intelligentsia. Parents at that time lived in Moscow. My father worked as a chief engineer in a construction trust. Mother taught the basics of electrical engineering in one of the technical universities.
The future director grew and developed, gradually standing out among his peers. He learned to read early. The parent house had a good library. The novel not only read a lot, but also knew how to retell what he read to his fellow friends. In that chronological period, Soviet boys dreamed of becoming a test pilot, an astronaut, or a policeman. Fokine dreamed of flying to Mars or to the moon. He studied well at school.

Creative projects
According to all the source data, Fokin could become a professional builder. However, the institute successfully operated the famous KVN MISI team. Roman spent all his free time at rehearsals, performances and tours. He wrote scripts and humorous miniatures. Having received a diploma in 1987, the young specialist worked for two years in the management of Mospromstroy. And he even got an appointment as a senior engineer. Then he realized that the secret magic of screenwriting did not let him go, and switched to television as an assistant director.
After some time, Fokine began to be invited as a host to youth television projects. The debut of the presenter took place in 1993 at the intellectual and humorous program for teens "The Magnificent Seven." Then he demonstrated his skills in the programs “How many good girls” and “Once a week”. Leading career was quite successful. But after some time, Roman felt a lack of fundamental knowledge and took a course in directors and scriptwriters.
