The Cyber Transporter
The Cyber Transporter was my major project at University where i was given a brief by Studio McGuire to create an abstract piece using the themes of 'Madness' and 'Cyberpunk'. I ended up creating a 3D animation which allowed me to show how madness had manifested a characters reality, creating a surreal immersive experience which draws the audience in and allows them to reflect on learning the characters reality.
​
Through the experience, i show how the character is clearly going through a manic state and is actually in a mental institution, however, the piece is more than that. The piece allows more fortunate people to be able to empaphise with those who can misinterpret reality and how easy it is for them to be confused with their imagination. It also provides a metaphor which highlights how we can be immersed in madness going on in our own lives and how only in reflection we can rationalise what we have been through due to how immersed and unnaware we can be.
Lechy
Lechy is the product of an assignment to create a conceptual game idea. The final project presented was a poster which detailed the many aspects of the game.
​
I really enjoyed the creation of Lechy as i was able to conceptualise a lot of ideas including the characteristics and design of a main character as well as a thought out story. Furthermore, i got to conceptualise ideas for a game level in terms of mechanics, layout and design. I feel this was a good place to start my character creation skills and I look forward to creating more in the future!

Through the creation of the character Lechy, i began to really get invested into the back story and characteristics of Lechy during this project. This highlighted to me that i have a real interest in Character Design and going forward i am very interested in conceptualising and modelling characters.
