4.2 New Portfolio Work

What I want to improve

I want to add more programming work to my portfolio including videos of finished products as well as some prototypes that show my development as a programmer. I feel that at the moment my portfolio is devoid of work that I achieved as a programmer and rather flooded with some of the things I done within my 3D modelling classes. Going forward I want to add some of my previous works that display where I came from in terms of programming skill and how well I am able to learn and pick up new skills.

What I added to improve my portfolio

I added my work from my first year in college (Unit567) to my portfolio as I think it displays some of the skills I was able to adapt and learn during one of my first projects with a deadline. I wanted to be able to include some screen shots of the assets that I had created for this game however I was unable to regain access to the sprites I had created. I like the addition of this project to my portfolio as I think it shows how I have progressed throughout my time at college and what range of skills I have.

This is my unit 9/10 project that I created in UE4 during my second year at college. I wanted to add this to my portfolio as it was my first excursion into a new engine and it allowed me to learn a new range of skills so I though it would be another good way to display to people viewing my portfolio the breadth of my skills and how quickly I was able to learn a new engine. As this project was more to do with the level design I want to include some images of the development process behind that in the future but other than that I am very happy with what I have so far.

I added my test video for my cyberdrive project that I created for the cyberpunk themed project at college. I feel as though this game had me create some interesting mechanics and got me to work with the AI system in unreal for the first time with has heightened my interested in the creation of AI within games. I think this body of work shows me getting better to grips with a new engine and some new mechanics which as a learner I think is important to include in my portfolio as it shows my ability to learn.
