During early 2017 I undertook a role as a 3d generalist at Digital Labs. The role consisted of creating the 3d content for an augmented reality app. The app was aimed for teenagers in the Greater Manchester area applying for university. During my time there I worked as part of a small team as head of 3D content for the project. My role was to produce high quality 3D content which was then implemented in the application. I modelled the character and assets off the concept art. I assisted with the rigging and animation of the character and objects the character interacted with using Autodesk Maya. My other role involved utilizing Wikitude 3D which was the augmented reality software for the project.

Throughout my degree I used Autodesk Maya, 3Ds Max, Unity and Houdini to design both natural and mechanical objects. During my studies I have created computer simulations and worked within motion capture. I have worked on the film editing process and produced many short adverts and educational films using final cut pro Adobe Premier Pro, Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator and Adobe master suite. I have also worked within game development using software such as Unity where, over the course of a year, I planned and produced a full game. I have used HTML and CSS for web development and have created web app using JavaScript. I have a good knowledge of mel scripting within Maya and a basic scripting knowledge of Python.
