3D modelling and environment art is my most recent passion. The ability to transfer a mental vision into a 3D piece or create a whole 3D environment is simply a greatly fulfilling achievement each time. I've been fiddling with Blender and Quixel, for modelling and texturing respectively, for about a year, both professionally and recreatively. My current spare time project involves transforming a painting by Arnold Böcklin into a 3D world!

Team Generous is a charity initiative, that brings together creative people to create a tailor made film in collaboration with NGO’s to support their work for a better world. Team Generous 2020 was a collaboration with Save the Children, and was a part of Svendborg Graphics art festival. As part of the team, I got hands-on experience with the new version of Blender, to create environment and lighting for a short animation film. In addition to the invaluable experience of working with talented creative people, and being part of a intensive and innovative animation production, I got to work with Quixel Mixer, Adobe After Effects as well as Motion Capture technology. The film will be released by Save the Children as part of a campaign later this year.

Digital Sprint is a start-up focused on delivering digital solutions to companies, through concept development made by IT students in 3-week sprints. I was a part of one of the teams who worked together with the Ministry of Environment and Food of Denmark. Our challenge was to create a digital concept that would make information more easily accessible and digestable to the employees who are constantly on the road, making sure restaurants, supermarkets etc. comply to general food safety. Our solution was inspired by e-learning sites such as Duolingo, and Codecademy, that use gamification and simplicity to create easily accessible and motivation ways of absorbing information.

The IT-Univsersity of Copenhagen hold a bi-annual event where companies from the IT industry visit the university to talk and network with the students. As an ambassador of the university, my responsibility was to initiate and uphold communication with the companies, gain awareness amongst the students, and facilitate the practicalities on the day of the event. I worked in this role as ambassador four times, which was both an exercise in event management and communication, as well as an opportunity to talk with a lot of different companies and professionals in various positions in the IT sector.

Circle of Life was an exploration of the adaptiveness of our homes, specifically using kinetics and light. We wanted to create a concept that radically altered the static properties of modern homes, and opened up to a more adaptive home.

Chromatic Vanguard is the codename of a project I assisted Danish digital designer Emil Villumsen with, showcasing the capabilities of ray tracing in Unity. The project was made for Unity and NVIDIA, and resulted in a line of videoes showcasing and guiding the use and powers of RTX video cards in 3D environment design in Unity. I created 3D models in Blender 3D, and helped build the scene in Unity, working with Quixel as well. It goes to show how quickly you can achieve visually stunning scenes in Unity with the capabilities of ray tracing!

As part of my studies I applied and was accepted into DADIU, a programme which gathers students from different universities and studies within Denmark. These students come with all the various skill sets required to create a video game, and I fulfilled the combined role of game and level designer in my team. Our team, Oblongata Games, created To Ashes; a free-to-play adventure game for mobile. As a game and level designer, I was responsible for the concept development, as well as creating challenging and engaging levels, working in the Unity game engine. Working in a team with such a broad palette of talent was incredibly valuable, and gave me a glimpse of what is needed in a game production with 16 people, both technically and in terms of communication. Our game To Ashes has since been nominated for an IMGA (International Mobile Game Awards), and will be showcased at IndieCade Festival.

The Files of Liam Redsquire is a film noir inspired point and click adventure game for PC, where you play as the squirrel Liam Redsquire, who move to the tree, The Big Maple, to solve the case of the leaves falling off the tree. The game was created for the course “Game World Design”, and I was a narrative designer on the project, in charge of building a believable and engaging storyworld in the life of anthropomorphic animals.

We were challenged by Coop to create a digital solution that would incentivize on-the-go millennials to become loyal costumers. Through contionous communication with both Coop, potential customers/users, and use of tools such as the Business Model and Value Proposition Canvas, we developed an app concept based on nudging and gamification. We wanted to reward young people commuting with Co2 friendly transportation, by awarding them points that led to discounts in grocery stores managed by Coop.

Because Reasons is a mobile game that relies on the creativity and wackiness of the players. It sprung from the experience of playing rock, paper, scissors with a child, who constantly chose other objects and argued why they were superior. In the end, we had made a fully functioning online mobile game, where players have to argue why their object would win in a fight. On this project I did both game design as well as UI/UX design, working mostly with Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.
