WORK EXPERIENCE
Maxon
Cinevercity Instructor
I was hired by Maxon to create a Cinevercity course, showing my newly created method of creating normal maps in Cinema 4D, and then making them compatible with Unreal Engine. 
This is a workflow that I developed myself, to take my assets I created in Cinema 4D, and make them fully compatible with Unreal Engine.
You can view the introduction to the course, at this link here.
