Experience

• 2d principal artist at Gameloft

  Ho Chi Minh City, VN

  August 2024 - Present

  I take care of technical approach to speed up the process on any starting project. It can be pure concept, 2d vfx, quick prototyping on blender and test on engine, r'n'd, helping define flow, breakdown, communication with stakeholder and so on.

• 2D supervisor Artist at Gameloft

  HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam

  March 2023 - Present

  I m currently taking care of respecting the ETA and insure good quality of work on the current on going season while I set the guidelines for the next coming season and provide some KV and new character concept to the production team, create from scratch illustration for point of sell as well, well everything related to pre production. The big challenge on this is that I cannot make guideline before Keyvisual which is very frustrating due to the short production time line, and I cannot delegate that so I need to take care of it by myself.
  
  When it's needed I rework the process and try to improve the flow in between GD, 2D, 3D, animators and VFX. When there is a need I try to find technical solution with 3D supervisor and dev.
  
  Sometimes I make new prototype animation by using the rig made by animators on blender. When I prototype keyvisuals I use mostly blender so the 3d team or marketing team can reuse some assets during the production phase, same for vfx shaders. I try to add blender process for environment model sheet elements and train my team to speed up the process as well.
  
  Then of course there is big part of paint over and retakes, and follow up on progression to insure a good quality and to push further the career path for my artists. Well management stuff with endless meetings with other supervisors.
