Welcome

Greetings, programs! 

My name is Arlene and this is my portfolio page. I am a programmer with a passion for virtual technologies. C# is my weapon of choice and Unity is my battleground. I model in Blender and create textures and backgrounds using Photoshop and Illustrator. I started off in the film industry so I know how to assemble a RED camera in ten minutes or less* and I know my way around Premiere Pro and After Effects. For my master’s degree I focused on building augmented and virtual reality applications.

To find my work, peruse below, or click the social links to find my work on Instagram, YouTube, and Twitch.

Research:

I have done research on user interaction and immersion in virtual environments. KORE, my master's research project, specifically studied immersion and communication in asymmetrical games (click here to learn more!). 

My thesis paper analyzed interactivity in AR apps through game and educational methodologies in order to determine which mechanics encouraged the most user interaction and relayed the most information effectively. Read the paper here
