Synopsis
This project will explore existing pipelines for live projects and games, using Riot's first-person shooting game, Valorant, as an example. I will explore the ways in which current Riot artists create art for their games and follow the full 2D creation process from concept to promotion. By working in an established art style I will be able to showcase all of the abilities I learned at Abertay through various different 2D methods. Exploring how different artists translate and adapt styles to fit their own portfolio is a key aspect of this project. In today's industry, sequels and live projects are becoming increasingly popular so as an emerging junior artist, I'll need to demonstrate my ability to bring original ideas to the table while remaining relevant to the work at hand.
DECIBEL - Agent 20

Project Motivation
Been interested in 2D game art my whole life. My personal goal for this project is to come away with a more diverse portfolio that will assist me in commencing my journey towards becoming a professional concept artist. At the moment, my work is very feminine and organic. I believe that by creating work for the Valorant world, I will be enhancing my own artistic skills and expanding my visual library.
