First Concepts - Medina Fix up
The first assignment in the class was to group in smaller groups and concept our ideas for the experience. My group concepted the Medina Fix up. I was in charge of concept art seen below. I did the key concept art and also a floor plan layout. I was also responsible for finding references, I gathered images and videos describing the city of Fez in Morocco, as this was not an environment any of us were familiar with.

First Sprint - Style Test - Firewatch Style
The second assignment is when the sprints started. I was the sprint leader for this one, as I had previous experience being a sprint lead. For this style test we looked to firewatch as a style to emulate. I did a lot of research into Campo Santo’s style. For the asset creation I was focused on furniture models and the floor model. I also set up alphas for the patterns on the furniture which I textured. In combining all our assets, I placed most of the modular assets into the scene, created the sky box and set up most of the lighting and setup the VR Pawn so that you could teleport around in the scene.
