Dante's inferno: Trials of St. Lucia - Electronic Arts April 2010

Picture
Environment Artist

Immediately after the Dante's Inferno title was finalized I began working on the Co-Op expansion pack complete with a simple match editor entitled the "St. Lucia Edition".  Responsibilities included reworking existing assets and combining aspects of different levels to create brand new arenas for this expansion pack that was converted into a digital download.  Changes to the way the environment was built were also needed to compensate for the wider angle of view due to the new playable flying/hovering character (St. Lucia), new finishing moves, and larger arenas were needed overall for Co-Op combat.

The Godfather - Electronic Arts Spring 2006

Picture
Environment Artist

Modeled/textured a variety of assets in the different neighborhoods including interiors, exteriors, and entire buildings/landmarks to recreate the different locations from the film.  Worked with the Art Director and Leads to create building facades and texture sets unique to the different locations to keep the game true to the time period and locations portrayed in the film.  Worked closely with the Technical Artists to balance variety and framerate by helping to create a system of modular building parts to populate the expansive areas of this open-world game.  Specifically owned neighborhoods like Hell's Kitchen and Harlem, as well as the more unique areas of the game such as the train yards and waterfront.  Continuously strove to push the level of realism from the smallest of details like building materials used and architectural styles to entire skyscrapers and even entire neighborhoods.  Also created a variety of props for both in-game and for the cutscene cinematics.
