Cinematics Breakdown | Assassin’s Creed Origins | 2017 Happy with what I have done for these two scenes. Got my hands dirty for layout/cinematography and also learnt a lot on the game engine integration aspect. Anytime I wanted to add fancy details to scene (props interaction, custom camera to gameplay), it involved various department to work together. I really love the collaborative aspect yet sometimes I wish the process could be simpler.

finally had some time to compile all my past works. weekly anim quota for this show is 40-50s, which is quite crazy. had to employ lots of anim shortcuts, library cycles and presets.
