I have been working as a tech artist on Apex Legends, here is some of my work from Apex and some personal explorations.

Rhythm - Animated Short Film

The story is about a zither (a stringed instrument) master, who played music inspired by lofty mountains and flowing water; broke his strings after the mountain recluse who knew the tune of his heart passed away. We aim to bring the Chinese ink style painting aesthetic into our art style and create an authentic world using Unreal engine for production and rendering.​
