In 2019, he entered the College of the Kyiv Film and New Media Academy, majoring in Audiovisual Arts and Production. There, Mykyta created several student works, including his short film project "No Nest", which was canceled due to a lack of professional help.
In February 2022, due to the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, he had to flee his home once again.

In February 2023, he moved to Florida to study in the Film program at Full Sail University.
