Technical Artist

At PitchLabs, I implemented animation and VFX throughout the main game loop — from match introductions and gameplay moments to goals, results and rewards.

The challenge was precision in motion.

I translated the team’s motion targets into Unity, manually extracting animation data from Adobe After Effects to reproduce the intended movement as precisely as possible. The proposals also left room for me to refine the effects during implementation.

Alongside this work, I supported shader implementation and built internal Unity tools to speed up repetitive tasks.

Technical Artist

At Gluck Games, I handled animation and UI integration for Ragnarok and Lord of the Jungle, working within the company’s proprietary engine and the 99 Royale ecosystem.

Working at the limits of a custom engine.

The engine used a step-based system where access to game information depended on the current stage of the spin. This supported reuse across games, but new mechanics brought different integration challenges in each title.

Working closely with artists, developers and game designers, I brought the game content into the engine, adapting animation and UI requirements to those constraints and pushing the existing system to accommodate new features.

Unity Development

At Wildbytes, I worked on the Pull&Bear augmented reality application in Unity, focusing on application architecture and UI implementation.

The project brought together a mobile application and an augmented reality live show. The film and images here provide context for the experience.

Fullstack Game Developer

At EgoGames, I worked as a Fullstack Game Developer on competitive mobile games built in Unity, within a platform for skill-based competitions, tournaments and multiplayer experiences.

I implemented gameplay, game logic, UI and animations, integrating new features into the client and connecting them with the platform’s systems.

From prototype to production.

My role combined client-side development, system integration and technical support, taking features from prototypes to versions ready for production.

03 / About me

Beyond the engine.

Personal projects, different mediums.
A place for experiments and the questions behind them.

Different mediums.
A sense of rhythm.

For me, Technical Art requires aesthetic sensitivity as much as technical understanding. Rhythm is the thread connecting my work in 3D environments, VFX, board games, illustration and music.

This is a more personal space: a place to look at those connections, share experiments and reflect on how composition, movement and play shape an experience.

A different kind of engine: cards, pieces and a table.
01 / Space3D & atmosphere

What does a place tell you before anything happens?

Two environments exploring the relationship between a space, its lighting and the story it suggests.

The Bunker

A real-time environment in Unreal Engine 4, modelled in 3ds Max and textured in Substance Painter. Soviet architecture and retro-futuristic technology informed its connected rooms and changes in height.

Abduction

The same country house in two contrasting moods: the warmth of sunset and the unease of a blue-green night. A study in how lighting can change the reading of a familiar place.

02 / MotionVFX & visual language

Can movement say something without words?

My VFX demo explores particles and shaders as a visual language. Colour, rhythm and movement shape how an effect feels — from the tension of electricity to the warmth of a fire.

These studies belong to my personal archive, separate from the interactive website prototypes in Shader Lab.

03 / ExperimentShader Lab

A small playground for shape, interaction and transformation. Explore the parameters, or look at the code behind each effect.

STUDY 001Static preview
Volume / Ray marching

Shape & light

Living material

A surface with a pulse. Change its shape, soften its reflections, then move the light.

Useful for stylized organic props, animated pickups and materials that need to feel alive.

Why a volume? Curvature makes deformation and light readable. This sphere is calculated in the shader, without an imported mesh.

Shape the overlapping waves.

Soften the highlight.

Set to zero to hold the shape still.

Static preview. Live controls require JavaScript and WebGL.

STUDY 002Static preview
Plane / Domain distortion

Interaction & flow

Energy field

Move your cursor or drag a finger across the field. The lines bend around you.

A starting point for shield surfaces, areas of influence and responsive interface backgrounds.

Why a plane? The entire surface becomes a field. The interaction changes its coordinates, rather than moving a 3D object.

Control how strongly the pointer bends the field.

Choose broad contours or tightly packed lines.

Set to zero to freeze the flow.

Static preview. Live controls require JavaScript and WebGL.

STUDY 003Static preview
Silhouette / Noise mask

Mask & transition

Dissolve & reveal

Erase a figure along a glowing edge. Bring it back by reversing the same threshold.

Useful for spawning objects, changing states and transitions that reveal their own progress.

Why a silhouette? A flat figure keeps attention on the mask and edge. The same idea can be applied to a material on a mesh.

Zero reveals the whole figure; 100 removes it.

Change the scale of the erosion.

Set to zero to freeze the noise.

What changes when the rules live on a table?

The Dungeon Guardian

A board game project from my personal archive. The prototype brings rooms, cards, dice and playing pieces into a physical space.

Here, the project can be explored through the prototype itself, and through future notes on its rules and design decisions.

Illustration is another part of my personal archive. A different way to explore composition, away from the moving image.

How does sound change the same image?

Music sits alongside the visual work in my personal archive. These tracks offer another way into rhythm and atmosphere.
