conclusion
This project really pushed my technical art leadership skills, from managing a team while building mobile-optimized rendering pipelines to creating custom shader solutions under tight hardware constraints. Leading artists while doing hands-on work taught me how to balance creative vision with technical limits and expanded my understanding of performance-driven art direction.
Beyond the technical achievements, this was one of the most personally rewarding experiences of my career and a project I'll always be proud of.
