• Produce basic textures to apply and give colour to characters and apply and balance materials in a realtime engine;
• Optimize the UVs to maximize texture use;
• Bake normal maps for all 3D models;
• Contribute to character playability ideas and aesthetic designs;
• Stay up to date on best practices in the video game industry, work to integrate them into the project and share knowledge with inter-project colleagues;
