Emet-Selch was one of the characters I was especially proud to work on for the set. One of the greatest «villains » with a fantastic character building. So I paid a lot of attention to his pose and expression here.

I made a short video detailing gameplay animation, along with some responsibilities you could expect on the job.
The hope is to help shed light on some aspects of the role, as well as help newcomers have insight into how to gear their work for an application.

My job at Netflix has not been renewed for another season, along with many incredible colleagues at Night School. The day I found out I got this job was one of the best days of my life, and it’s devastating to see it come to such a sudden end.

This little guy is from Moss 2. He’s based on a dung beetle. He pushes his rolling cannon around, mounts, and fires it.
I’d animate the bug itself moving. But the way the cannon reacts is nearly 100% generated using my spatial tools. Primarily the physics and aim tools. He was so easy to animate!
