Optimization of 3D models including creation of LOD models using Autodesk Maya Unity model set-up and integration using in-house Unity tools Work directly with Design to create/update and maintain 3D art assets to meet gameplay needs Assist QA team with troubleshooting art bugs and issues reported by customers Research and document outsourcing packages for 3D model creation Communicate necessary feedback with Outsourcing team through 3D asset design and 2D paintovers Create 3D assets from reference based on game needs Maintain/Create texture assets for complex 3D models using Substance Painter Document processes and procedures of workflows Assist with set up of Decal system utilizing Maya and Unity.Learning outsourcing needs and requirements for Art team

Sculpt high-resolution character models in 3DS Max Maya, Blender, Zbrush, or MudboxCreate clean, low-resolution game topology, UV’s, and texturesDevelop prototypes working as a character artist on a medium to large teamWork within multi-disciplinary design teams to increase the expressiveness, customization, and diversity of avatarsConceptualize, present and execute ideas within time and technical constraints while actively participating in artistic, creative and technical, problem-solvingGeneral 3D asset content creation including modeling, texturing, materials, and lighting, at both mobile and high-end specsIterate and polish assets in engine (Unreal 5) and publish complete assetsContribute directly to both the conceptual thinking behind and the physical creation of detailed, high-quality products

Develop the look of the 3D models for the new indie Studio. Worked with the Technical Artist and Animation teams to help standardize the way 3D models were created.Cultivated a working relationship with producers to establish workflows for 3D asset pipeline. Sculpted 2D concept provided by artists into 3D character models.

3D modeling using 3Ds Max software Create low poly game objects for use inside Unity game engine. Model objects for reference images collected for task. Collect information to be given to off side team for reference image collection. Use Photoshop and Quixel package to create realistic textures for PBR workflow. Set up presentation lighting for used in HD model renders Create presentation renders using textured models for purposes of obtaining more work for the team. Analyze received CAD files and recreate or reduce polygon count so models perform inside Unity game engine Participation in daily scrums to assess the progress of the current scrum schedule. Assist with the training of current texturing and modeling pipeline for new or less experienced employees.
