MECHAUSSIER Mathieu - UMIKO Lighting

Hello! Welcome to UMIKO, our final student project.  I'm Mathieu MECHAUSSIER, I wish to be a lighting artist for games!

We spend one year working on it and I'm very proud to show what I did for the project. I was in charge of the lighting for Umiko, but also of the animation and I contribute a lot to the Level Art.

You will find here some tools I create and some process I use to do the lighting inside the game UMIKO. The tools you will see helped the team to build the world more efficiently, or helped us to keep the game smooth and save some performance, or were made in an artistic purpose. I hope you will find something interesting in this video and enjoy it!

This project was a really cool project! I'm glad I worked with such an amazing team! I would like to thank them once again for everything they did for this project and for the good mood they brought this year! Keep being awesome dudes! And I would like to thank YOU for watching and (I hope) enjoying my stuff!!
