Cinematic Designer

2021/08 - 2022/04

• Provided ideation and overall design to storyboard for mobile game ads.
• Produced prototype video for ads via the Unreal Engine 5 sequencer. Designed overall camera and actors' movements, trigger functions and events from different blueprints in the sequencer.
• Designed functional blueprints to boost production.
• Version control through perforce.
• Communicated and collaborated with artists and video editors for further production.

Project:

Twitch+: A Personalized Twitch Resources Recommendation Engine

• Designed and built a full-stack web application for users to search twitch resources(stream, video and clip) and acquire recommendations.
• Built a web page with a rich + user-friendly experience using React and Ant Design.
• Implemented RESTful API using Java servlets, and retrieved real Twitch resources using Twitch resources to implement a Content-based algorithm.

MR Surgery Inspector

• Implement a file import system based on Azure blob storage to acquire data using REST API for runtime hot loading FBX model and vuforia data from the backend to Hololens frontend.
• Implemented a factory + injection design to spawn UI and attach delegation to toggle specific objects.
• Implemented Vuforia for overlaying the virtual object to its 3d-printed model in reality. When looking at a pre-trained geometry in real life, the virtual object will snap to its location in the real world.
• Implemented a sectioning function for the inspector.

Virtual Reality Vestibular Rehab Simulator

• Created fundamental architecture for the project that is flexible for data communication with the remote end. We shared a public JSON file between two ends; when therapists are done with configuration and run a simulation, the configuration data will pass to a JSON file and call the "patient end" to start a simulation. The "patient end" will then read data from JSON and simulate with the appropriate dosage.
• Optimized the project to reduce draw calls and batches.
• Created a driving simulation that will infinitely generate roads and waypoints for the car to navigate.
• Created a grocery simulation that will automatically generate numerous interactable objects on shelves.

Procedural Map Generator Prototype

• Designed an algorithm to generate terrain, biome and region for strategy games, valid to use for all tile-based maps.
