The Union

Game footage from Sun of the Children portraying the 2D into 3D transition of Stardust Boy and Grasshair Girl. 2D Characters designed, rigged and animated by me. The 3D characters were rigged by Kayla Techmeier. Kayla worked on the 1st pass of the 3D animation and I worked on the 2nd pass. Everything in-game was created in the Unreal Engine 4 by Chuewa Vang.

Sun of the Children won 2nd Place for Best Visual Quality at the Intel University Games Showcase during GDC 2018.
