I've become accustomed to the workflow and production of real time game engine visual effects and assets using Substance Painter with Unity, Unreal Engine and Source 2.I also massively excelled my knowledge for multiplatform 360 virtual tours or 360 VR, demonstrating features and effects rarely seen in this format, I was able to integrate logic and animated assets in a non-linear interactive experience, including working TV screens with changable channels, Seemless 360 Transitions with High-end 3D VFX and call-to-action assets that would explode to reveal components or cross-sections, all projected and positionally fixed correctly in 360 space when looking around.
