GeneSix

When Earth was destroyed by nuclear war, a large group of scientists were forced to flee to Mars as a last resort. As time passes and resources start depleting, our protagonists find themselves struggling to be united as a group whilst battling other survivors on Mars. However, everything changed when a stranded ship from Earth came crashing down into Mars' atmosphere...

During my 3rd year in college, I've had the opportunity to work on this team project, GeneSix. Throughout this project, I learned a lot on teamwork and how to communicate with my teammates. In the process, I was also able to acquire skills on photo bashing and matte painting. This project was overall quite challenging , however I learned a lot and I am proud of how the project turned out. 

Key Arts and Environment

I have the opportunity to design some environment for this project using photo bashing and matte painting. These are some of the key moments and environment designs in the story GeneSix.

Baani's Death

The scene when Baani was killed by raiders while they are trying to rescue the survivors.

The Survivors

Whilst exploring the fallen ship, the crew discovers the remains of the survivor in the ship cabin.

Base Camp

The campsite used by the crew as shelter from Mar's harsh weather and to gather supplies.

Plant Culture Lab

A lab in the fallen ship used to develop plants that are able to survive on Mars soil so human lives can be sustained on Mars. The last hope of humanity was discovered in this very lab.

Paper Tag

‘Paper Tag’ is a short film about a burned out salary man's interaction with an innocent little girl filled with imagination at the bus stop. 

Paper Tag was a group project I was involved in during my final semester in in college as a studio simulation. The illustrators have to work hand in hand with the digital animators to create a short film by the end of the semester. The pre-production stage took about 4 months and same goes to the production stage. I was part of the concept art team and became a Character Designer. I designed the main character, Adam. This project was the biggest challenge yet for me, however I learned a lot and I am happy with the final product.

Key Art and Early Concept Art

The early concept of the story was about a burned out artist on the brink of giving up his dreams, meets a little girl with the biggest imaginations. As he interacts with the little girl, he was able to see the world through the little girls imaginative eyes and eventually regained his passion for art.

Pizza Panic

When a pizza girl's life was suddenly cut short in a car accident, she found herself trapped in the afterlife. Not ready to give up living just yet, she must find her way out and return to the land of the living. With the help of an ancient spirit guide, will she be able to return to the land of the living alive?

This project was heavily inspired by the Chinese folklore of the mythical creature, Nian. And the depiction of hell or "diyu" Chinese mythology.

Bane of the Crimson Witch

Once upon a time there lived a little witch named Ethelinda, who was unable to accept herself due to her many flaws. She took her powers for granted and never appreciate what she have. It was not until tragedy struck and she loses her powers was she able to finally learn what is important. This is a story about a young witch and her journey on discovering self love.

Bane of the Crimson Witch is my IP about a story concept that is still ongoing. I wrote this story as a concept some time ago and was lucky enough to finally be able to develop it on my final semester in college. I loved story telling and world building, so this project was actually a thrill to work with. Watching my characters grow and interact with each other and finally witnessing the materialization of these scenes and story lines I have in my head in real life is a real treat.
