I was part of a team that handled execution and delivery for a video/broadcast package toolkit for a major content publisher. We worked with an edit house to create graphics and templates for on-air spots, as well as created easy-to-update toolkit files with video documentation for long-term versioning purposes.

Worked with the Emerging Tech division to concept, model, light, texture, UV and bake Cinema4D scenes that would eventually be rendered real-time in a browser using three.js for a large tech company. Worked to translate a Maya workflow into C4D baking workflow. Worked with other artists and developers to implement models, overcome technical hurdles and optimize scenes enough for a high-fps, mobile-first, in-browser experience.
