Introduction
During my time at The Game Assembly, I worked on multiple student game projects in teams, focusing on technical art, HLSL, Shaders and VFX. This included creating a wide array of visual effects, from combat abilities to environmental impacts, using various techniques including custom shaders and Niagara.
The technical art program at TGA is highly collaborative and production-focused, ensuring that all visual assets, including VFX, are optimized for performance while maintaining high visual fidelity.
