Half Dome Yosemite Recreation
2024
The goal of this project was to create an accurate 3D recreation of a photo I took of Half Dome in Yosemite. I used height map data from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) website to locate the corresponding terrain, which was provided in two images that I stitched together in Photoshop. After processing the height map in Houdini, I imported it into Unreal Engine, ensuring proper real-world scaling. I then used quixel megascan assets and a skybox from the epic games store to lay out the scene. I then positioned the camera and made sure to replicate the scene as closely as possible to the original photograph.
Haunted House
2024
Created this project inspired by the spirit of Halloween! I looked at images of old, run down and abandoned homes. The main centerpiece I built was the house and was modeled using Maya and brought into Unreal Engine as an asset. I then laid out the scene using quixel megascan trees and a skybox from the epic games store. I wanted to make the house feel a bit more mysterious so I added some more fog and a few point lights in the windows as well as the front door to finish out the scene.
