Targeting a real-time VFX project: Art Directed and VFX Supervised the look, feel and methods in creating the primary front end 3d appearance of Carnival Cruise’s groundbreaking global, 3d interactive platform (involving over 35 companies). Using Unity, Perforce and integrating a large arsenal of 3d content creation software, I evolved the pipeline for a team of 16 artists which I lead into realizing some stunning real-time 3d interactive environments. In the process I worked closely with a team of programmers while conceiving of tools and programming tasks required to realize necessary functionality and appearance. From 'on the box' establishing the underwater lighting and layout "philosophy", to presenting to the global project leads in Miami, nice to play such a pivotal role on this massive project, while working with a great team.
