Barbie

CG Supervisor

Supervising a team of CG artists while also working on shots, we created over 60 shots of CG windows with 25 unique angles. Consistency over all the shots was very important, as well as tracking shot progress so we could keep on track hitting daily deadlines. We also created set extensions for various shots.

A Man in Full

Senior CG Generalist

Created the Croker sign asset

Model + LookDev

For a previous show I developed a technique of generating an extruded sign model based off a black and white image in Houdini.

For A Man in Full I was able to use that technique and generate the shape of the Croker sign very quickly. This efficiency brought down the time needed to develop the asset substantially.


Software:
Houdini, Maya, Substance Painter
