Project Archive – Older & Supporting Work

Too Late? – Ocean Environment

A cinematic scene exploring water, lighting, and mood as a spiritual successor to an earlier raft project. Focus on wave detail, reflections, and atmospheric storytelling.

• Modeled and dressed the environment around a central raft model.
• Experimented with water shaders and reflections in Blender.
• Rendered a short animated sequence to emphasize mood.
• Showcased in SJSU's booth at Makers Faire 2024

The Silent Guest

A short horror game developed in a three-week window for a game studies class. I handled core design, 3D art, and sound to craft a focused, horror narrative experience.

• Designed core gameplay loop and pacing.
• Created modular 3D assets and environment dressing.
• Composed and implemented sound to support tension beats.

The Frog Ninja

A class game project created in a three-week sprint. I focused on core system design, platforming feel, and 2D art while collaborating with a partner.

• Designed platforming systems and player feedback loops.
• Created 2D art assets.
• Coordinated with teammate on scope and implementation.

Anomaly

A stylized Spider-Man multiverse-inspired scene combining 3D environments with Blender’s Grease Pencil to explore cartoon stylized lighting and composition.

• Experimented with Blender's Grease Pencil capabilities.
• Experimented with stylized composition and color palettes.
• Built confidence with Blender’s Grease Pencil workflow.

Abandoned – VR Warehouse

An abandoned warehouse environment presented as a 360° VR video. One of my early explorations into liminal spaces, mood, and environmental storytelling.

• Modeled and lit an abandoned warehouse environment.
• Rendered in 360° for VR/immersive viewing.
• Used audio and composition to build tension.

Backroom Series

One of my earliest Blender animation projects, inspired by the Backrooms internet lore. I keep this here as a marker of where my journey started and how far my work has come since.

• Built simple backrooms inspired liminal environments and animated camera movement.
• Explored tension using light, catastrophobia, and empty spaces.
• Started forming my interest in atmospheric horror.
