Jeffrey Hepburn
Lead UE Tech Artist @ All of it Now
Orlando, FL, United States
My name is Jeffrey Hepburn- I'm a Filmmaker and Technical Artist. I've always been motivated by a passion for making stories and driven to capture moments.
I pride myself for having an eye for the interplay between light, colour, and materials- trying to highlight the detail and beauty in even the smallest things we might take for granted day to day.
My specialisations include real-time environment design, lighting, PBR texturing, and hard-surface modelling. As a UE technical artist I've spent the last several years working on XR + VR real-time experiences for tradeshows, film, and television doing scene prep, look-dev, optimisation, and programming for content integration.
