Chick-fil-A and Augmented Reality


Here is an example of the work I did for the project:



I textured many of the hero cows, adjusted the model of a generic cow model to represent each hero cow, and I animated the hero cow Decibel.  Decibel is animated in quick animation cycles for gaming purposes, but I strung them altogether for this animation video.

Your friends at Chick-fil-A® are excited to bring you the new Chick-fil-A Kids & Family App as a digital extension of our Kid’s Meal Program.

We want families to feel just as good about our children’s games and activities as they do about our food. That’s why we’re dedicated to creating games that kids love and parents appreciate. We promise to ensure that everything we put into children’s hands — from Chick-fil-A® Nuggets to Apps — meets the high quality standards that families have come to expect from Chick-fil-A.

What’s included:

The Amazing Cow Heroes in Augmented Reality (iPad® and iPhone®) 
See the Amazing Cow Heroes come to life from the cover of your Amazing Cow Hero comic book (issues 6-10 only). Just aim the camera of your device at the cover of your comic book to see the cows in action.

Another project at work in which I created 3D assets.  There are 2 games that involve a dog (a black lab and a yellow lab), I created its rig and animations and I also created a lot of the environments and environment assets throughout the various games.
