Skillset
Having had the opportunities to work with different companies in the past and in school.
I picked up a few skillsets throughout the years in school and in the tech industries.
3D Modeling
In Immersive Media, I was exposed to a variety of 3D Modeling software such as Maya and Blender. With Maya, I can model out 3D assets used in other projects and texture them with substance painter. Check out my Artstation profile.
Unity
Immersive Media covers a wide range of development from full fledge games to AR & VR applications. All of this is what I have learned through integrating my 3D assets into a unity environment and programming in C# (Visual Studio). I was also given the opportunity to obtain my Unity Associate Developer Certification by the school. Check out my projects.
UI/UX Design
My diploma sets me in a constant project-based setting. Where I am constantly developing games and applications either by myself or within teams. And UI/UX experiences for the user are quintessential in all our products. This is why I invest my time in applications such as Figma and adobe XD to create low/high-fidelity prototypes.
Game/Level Design
In my first year I was introduced to gamification concepts and learned the fundamentals of game design. I then advance into spatial theory and level design where I develop games based off original ideas from myself or in teams. The process of 'Whiteboxing' elevated my understanding of level and game design.
Social Media & Branding
As an elective module, social media & branding taught me skillsets in Adobe Suite (Photoshop & AI) and Canva where I created publicity campaigns/materials and trailers for games I or my team developed.
Web Development
Immersive Media students wear many hats, What this means is that we are not only just game developers but also have capabilities in web development which includes HTML, CSS and Javascript. We also have database knowledge where we are exposed to firebase and integrate them within websites and unity.
NETWORKING
I managed to learn networking as part of my modules during my time in school and industry attachment. I did modules on networking essentials for both field in Cyber & Network security and Cloud Computing.
VMware
To stimulate Cyber-attacks and different kinds of scenarios, I have learnt to use VMware as a testing environments for all my projects which includes pen-testing and setting up IPS/IDS.
Data Erasure
During my industry attachment program, I had the opportunity to pick up the skill of Data Erasure. I learned it through two ways of approach. One of them is through machinery and another through software program.
Customer Service
I picked up the art of customer service by being an IT helpdesk technician and also a retail assistant. And I am a strong believer in making a lasting impact on clients and customer I serve
Project Management
Throughout my academic endeavours,
I managed to prioritize my projects and assignment delegated to me as the teaching structure consists of mainly project planning and assignments. I have experience using the SCRUM framework and Jira software to efficiently manage various project.
Teamwork
Being a part of various projects and having gone through different kinds of working environments, I have learned that Teamwork is essential for every successful project. My course is a project driven so I am comfortable working solo or in diverse group setting.
