Demo Rocket About this Demo
A 3D model of flying a model rocket (Estes Doorknob), inspired by the missile scene in Behind Enemy Lines. Rendered along several flight paths using a bezier curve with a hi-res sky HDRI. Volumetric clouds in Blender Eevee were used to generate smoke effects while drastically reducing render times over Cycles.

About this Demo
A playable Unity 3D recreation of a target practice scene from Star Trek: The Next Generation. Demonstrates understanding of programming a complex game system via C# to dynamically modify game objects and components, creating user interface elements and creating audial & visual polish through the use of 3D positional sound, particle FX, lighting, animation and "polish". Additional modeling done within Blender.

Gameplay: Shoot red cubes for 6 points each. Blue cubes will add 3s to your allotted time while shooting a green cube (friendly) will cost you 14s.
