- LOTS of Prototyping (Environments visual target, Shader work, Character Lighting, Niagara based breakable pipeline, lobby visual enhancements, etc.)
- LOTS of Blockout Work (Environment, VFX, Characters, etc.) spreading across the entire game, at every stages of production.
As the Lead Character Artist, my job on Overwatch and Overwatch 2 consisted of:

- Helping the art director(s) define the 3D vision, style, and translation for all of the characters.
- Interacting with every department on a daily basis, to ensure a smooth, efficient, and collaborative environment.
- Managing the internal character team, through onboarding, mentoring, artistic feedback, and leadership training.
- Helping our Pre-Rendered and In-Game Cinematic teams with modeling/texturing reviews, pipeline support and feedback, and asset creations (initial highpoly assets for most of the hero characters came from the game team).
