Evil
Dead Regeneration---------------------2005
I
spent around two years working on Evil Dead Regeneration, which was my first
game from beginning to end. This project was more of a learning curve than
anything. I had the privilege of working on a couple evil bosses in the
game and a few of the animations for the main characters, but I mostly did
cinematic work. The top row consists of in game animations that are my favorites
but a few were actually cut from the game due to memory constraints. The
bottom two rows are in game cinematics. I think they look pretty good for
only having around two weeks to complete each one. If you decide to download
the cinematics, be patient as they run between 13 to 20 megs average.
This
was a game port I worked on for a few months. If you are unfamiliar with
what a game port means, it is basically taking a game and converting the
code to be compatible with another platform. In this case, we took Summoner
2 built for Playstation 2 and ported it over to the Game Cube. It is really
a quick way to generate more revenue for the company without doing much
work. But in this case we actually added two new characters into the game.
I spent much of my time taking existing animations and applying them to
new characters in 3D Max. I did some minor tweaks but nothing that changed
animation timing. A majority of my time was facial animation and I got pretty
quick at it.
Red
Faction II-------------------------------------------------2003
I
only worked on the weapon animations throughout this game port. The big
focus of this project was to take existing animations and create a sense
of urgency, quickness and impact. I took a few of the animations and reworked
them from scratch, but I also didn't want to stray away from what was already
there. My favorite one is with the eject clip that flips the new clip in
the air and then reloads it. It was the only one I decided to put a little
personality into. I didn't keep any of the source files so I don't have
any animation renders. I need to do some screen captures from the game when
I have some time.
