Description

The project brings Meta Avatar to new surfaces, such as Messenger and Instagram, on mobile phones leveraging Meta’s AR Engine Spark ARand tracking technology. As a Technical Artist, I have helped to bridge gap between target experience and restricted techs and bring the quality to next level where possible through practical approaches.

As a Technical Artist, I have helped to bridge the gap between target experience and restricted techs and bring the quality to the next level where possible through practical approaches. I identified visual regression introduced by the new shader and provided fixing direction and solution to correct shading and lighting to ensure visual quality is consistent. I also provided an improved eye shading solution to brighten avatar eyes and increase expressivity. Additionally, I created the initial loading shader and worked with engineers to implement a more engaging first-time-loading experience.
