Game story
Dr Who: The Lonely Assassins is based on the episode, Blink, from the Dr Who TV series where the "Weeping Angels" were introduced. It follows a continuation of the episode many years later.
Like other games in the found phone genre, the game takes place on a mobile phone that players interact with to experience the story.
The problem
The game had to stand on its own and be part of its own universe. The UI had to detach itself from the SIMULACRA game's identity while being unique and still solving all the problems of making a game using a phone UI
My work (tldr)
I was brought on this project to train and supervise the main game artist on this project while providing UI work and game art based on the game's needs.
Coordinating with clients
Here I want to showcase my ability to coordinate with clients from afar with instructions for shooting a media component and how it closely it resembles from the mockup to the final product shown below

Supervising juniors
Part of the job scope of the project was to train and guide another junior game artist to design UI for the first time.

Using the interface as a tool
Because of the limited space within the platform, I worked with the game designer to create UI elements to play with the scene for "boss fight" when the player finally confronts the main antagonist.
Animation
I worked with the programmers to implement them in Unity
