Company of Heroes 3 (2023)

•

A bit of personal history.

In 2005, I randomly picked up a real time strategy game called Dawn of war (DoW), developed by Relic, a studio based in Vancouver. I became obsessed with it! I spent years playing DoW online. This new hobby got me into Esports, which became a huge part of my life. My early 20s were dedicated to become a pro gamer.

Ultimately, this pursuit transformed into an internship and a full time job at the Esports team, Fnatic. This was the beginning of my design career.

As you can see, everything is connected and stem from Relic's game.

In late 2022, after a casual email sent to congratulate Relic on the launch of Age of empire 4, they asked me if I wanted to join their Marketing team to support the launch of Company of Heroes 3.

I hid my freaking out and said "Sure, why not".

The experience was great! Despite the studio going through some tough times. The economic aftermath of post covid forced many studios and tech companies to let go of a significant chunk of their work force.

On May 23rd, only 6 months after the adventure began, I got laid off along 120 other Relicans.

Short but sweet, this is a selection of visuals created at Relic.

The work revolved around design concept, texturing, lighting, composition, colorimetry and in-game capturing.
