Within this piece, my intention was to gain a better understanding of Level Design in a more in-depth approach, understanding the fundamentals of how stories can be told through an environment and core Level Design.

This is an early trailer for my teams upcoming group project! My responsibilities have been Team Leader and Level Designer. However, I've also been 3D modelling/Texturing, Visual Scripting and any other necessary elements of making the game. it's been a challenge as we did not have any programmers excluding some help from contracted Year 2 students, but as both a Leader and Team Member it's been a fantastic learning opportunity as well as a good practice in achieving leadership skills. The trailer presented was edited by myself along with some royalty free music.

This video showcases some practical examples of lighting I covered in my Individual Research project through a simple horror scene. Understanding lights, as well as the effects, will have on the player's gameplay in Level Design.

This assignment gave us the task of designing a white box environment with a core focus of Level Design. This meant taking in to account different aspects such as balance, fairness and many other different elements. My main goal with this project was to create a map that was fast paced and has a high 'risk and reward' feature.

This assignment was focusing on an underground setting. The main focus I wanted to explore was an enclosed and unsettling environment. With the first time using the Unreal Engine, this scene was an exciting and great start to understanding how Level Design can function in a game!
