I participated in the development of a virtual reality game as a 2D Lead and 3D lead. I was engaged in organizing the work of the team, took part in the formation of the visual component of the game.
"Lab Lockdown" is Virtual Reality Game where you interact with objects and solve chemistry problems along the way whilst trying to escape under a certain time limit. It is an Educational game where you’re tasked to beat an escape room within the time limit using your chemistry knowledge. There are two rooms, each with different tasks that must be completed in order to successfully win.
You have been selected to be a peer academic leader (PAL) for the STEM center at Miami Dade College. To prove your chemistry knowledge, you are being asked to escape a locked laboratory in 30 minutes. To escape, you must complete the assigned tasks by decoding the clues found around the lab. There will be three tasks, completion of each task will provide you with a code. After completing all the tasks, enter the codes to unlock the door to of the laboratory.
My job in the 2D side pertained creating concepts such as the environment, characters, poster, and logos. As an Environment artist, created concept for game setting as well as put assets together to form the game's environment. As a leader, I led a team of approxiamtely 15 artists with advice on compositing, lighting, design, and assets. I also assisted in Librarian duties for organizing schedules, assigning subjects among the team members, and organizing file folders in which projects were saved.

The textures I made for the characters were then applied to the models one of my colleagues made. They had them retopologized and rigged for the next step which was motion capture, where the characters movements were captured through suits the actors wore. I helped in general with the motion builder step by step instructions in order to capture the vieos and saving them properly in order to be cleaned by one of the team members. It was overall a great experience to be part of the process and see how this amazing project came to be.
