I was the visual effects (VFX) artist for my team's final student project, Iron Casket, which is a third-person shooter game where the player assumes the role of a giant mech robot who uses the weapons in their arsenal to advance through a city, defeat enemy mechs and complete certain objectives. I create a variety of visual effects, including explosions, bullet traces, muzzle flashes, various weapon impacts, and an array of environmental VFX. My job also includes optimization of my VFX to facilitate workflow and maintain a frame budget that is compatible with the dimensions of our game, reference-gathering to help me create assets that fit into the game's art style, and communicating with my teammates about what assistance I need from them and vice-versa.
