abacus brands
Abacus Brands is a small company that produces educational kits for kids (6-13) featuring physical books, hands-on activities and VR/AR experiences, accessed through a mobile app, that reinforce lessons.
As a 3D Generalist at Abacus, I mainly worked on crafting VR/AR content for the mobile apps but I also rendered product shots for sales and promotional materials, provided QA for all of the apps and, coordinated project details with our external developer.

Through the course of working on various projects I also had the opportunity to learn new skills including: making materials with node-based shaders, editing 360 footage, drafting UI layouts for mobile apps, and converting text to Voice Over using AI.
Programs used: Maya, Unity, Photoshop, Illustrator, Substance Painter, Substance Designer
