• Developed cinematic, realistic render shots from multiple angles, using multiple lights and HDRI.
• Applied critique from industry professionals to ensure quality of final product

Hook, Line, and Axe

• Created a series of game-ready models with high-poly baking to low-poly mesh.
• Minimized polycount by triangulating and reducing low-poly mesh.
• Practiced efficient texture packing practices using single texture sets with UV space efficiency ≥ 70%.
• Developed within a sprint-based schedule for timely production of assets.
• Adapted to evolving demands of project by iterating on style, proportion, and efficiency of models at various stages of pipeline.
