3D Character Animation (Main Role)

• Animated facial expressions and full-body reactions for multiple characters in response to in-game events and player actions.

• Recorded reference footage, created custom rigs, and performed weight painting and skinning in Blender to ensure expressive and clean deformations.

• Implemented animations into Unreal Engine.

• Worked closely with the animation team to establish a consistent, stylized animation style fitting the tone of the game.

Game Design Contributions (Final Phase of Project)

• Assisted in designing and implementing achievements, and helped define state machines for board game logic and minigame transitions.

• Updated Game Design Documentation (GDD) to reflect new and modified mechanics during the final development cycle.

• Contributed to refining the game rules and progression logic for several mini-games alongside the design team.

Team and Personal Impact

• I initially joined That’s My Family as a 3D animator, but from the start, the studio was aware of my strong interest in transitioning to game and level design. Once I completed my animation tasks, I was moved to the game design team, where I began contributing to gameplay systems, documentation, and implementation—marking the beginning of my career as a designer.
