Mufasa Canyon Entrance

Mufasa and friends come across a canyon that they decide to enter in order to escape the white lions.

I was a Senior VAD Illustrator on the Mufasa film and I worked with the art department and production designer Mark Friedberg to design and create environments within unreal engine. These environments were then used to shoot the animatic which was then presented to Disney. I was responsible for environment layout and some of the asset creation and I aided in optimization, troubleshooting, and driving for VR scouts for the director and department heads.
