Since January 2021, I have been working with Steamroller Animation, where I contributed to the animation of emotes for the popular game Fortnite. For nearly two years, I was involved in creating high-quality animations that enhanced the player experience, adding personality and flair to in-game characters through unique and expressive emotes.
In my role as a 3D Animator at Steamroller Animation, I contributed to the development of Horizon Online, an immersive online gaming experience. My responsibilities included creating dynamic in-game character animations that enhance player interactions and bringing cinematic storytelling to life through meticulously crafted animations.
A Way Home is a narrative-driven game that explores the journey of an elderly man with Alzheimer's who becomes lost in a snowstorm. Guided by sounds from his memories, he recalls significant moments from his life, such as saying goodbye to his daughter at a train station. The game creates a surreal experience by contrasting the environment with these memory sounds, starting in a dark cave filled with ambient cave noises and distant sounds of war from his past as a soldier. Divided into three visually distinct parts, the game uses color and light to convey the character’s emotions: the dark, high-contrast cave represents his fear; the foggy, desaturated woods illustrate loss and confusion; and the vibrant valley with a river reflects his growing clarity as he recovers more memories.
I led a team of four talented artists and programmers to create Whisper of the Wind during the Bose AR Game Jam. This game utilizes cutting-edge AR sound technology to tell the story of a little seed flying across the ocean in search of its place in the world. Drawing inspiration from my own life experiences and leveraging my expertise in animation and visual art, I crafted an immersive and inspiring experience that captivated audiences.
As a 3D Animator, I have experience working on major film projects like Transformers: Rise of the Beasts and Rebelmoon. I also contributed to the independent short film La Noria, which was created entirely through online collaboration among artists and has been featured in over 100 film festivals worldwide. In addition to my work on large-scale productions, I’ve created my own original short film, Zuzumi, showcasing my passion for storytelling and animation.
During my time at Steamroller Animation, I worked on animating Bob the Robot, an AI agent character for Meta. My role involved bringing this character to life, contributing to its dynamic and engaging animations.
