Projects
- Before They Devour UsBefore They Devour Us was my final University project, following a group of young adults as they are lured into a castle owned by a reclusive billionaire, who, unbeknownst to the rest of the world, is conducting experiments on humans in order to learn the secrets of immortality.
- Vampire Shop - Background DesignA concept design for a vampire themed shop, where they sell both human and animal blood to vampiric customers. The shop offers many features; fresh blood, chilled blood, or to-go bags, and an option to either take out or eat in. The only downside is that the shop is only open at night, because vampires.
- Sword Designs - Concept ArtI designed three unconventional swords for fun based on themes: Space, Egyptian, and Arcade. The development process included silhouettes, sketches, refinement and final pieces for all three swords. I also considered the functionality of the swords. The Space sword fires a concentrated laser beam; the Egyptian sword opens up and fires bandages to restrain the opponent; and the Arcade sword has multiple different 'games' with different functions (gunblade, shield, and turret).
