Experience

  • Canvas Animation for a Hero Section (Development)
    https://bchristopher23.github.io/portfolio/canvas/

    A custom canvas animation built with vanilla JavaScript. This animation was used as a background for the hero section on a client's website.

    It was originally designed in Sketch as an SVG. I had to convert it to a canvas animation and use JavaScript Web Workers to improve the performance.

    The GitHub repository can be found at the link attached.

  • 3D Cube (Development)
    https://bchristopher23.github.io/portfolio/cube/

    A 3D cube built using Three.js. This cube was a custom-made model in Blender.

    I took that model and added it to the client's website using JavaScript and Three.js. A lot of work went into getting the textures right and making it look as photo-realistic as possible. The GitHub repository can be found at the link attached.
