ZC Introduction and Art Portfolio

I am an IMGT student that is currently considering taking an IMGA minor. I am from southern China.

Currently, art in my life is only taking a minor place that I wish to make become more major. The lack of skill and the busy college life made it impossible for me to learn how to do art. I wish to become a game designer on both the technical side and audio designing side.

I have very little drawing skills and I have no designing skills. I have a pixiv account that I thought it could foster me to do art. But It clearly failed: https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/93798723

My attempt at drawing my virtual-YouTuber character(not the model). She just looks kinda off…

Compared to art, my programming skill is a little bit better. I can program an Arduino, write 8051 C code and raw ARM M0 assembly code. I can understand 8051 assembly code but I can not write it on my own. I can do basic PCB designs.

The sub 90 cents audio-light controller board I designed that I wish could help me in this term. It can do audio playback, have 4 additional PWM outputs (IO1/PW2/PW3/PW5) and 4 ADC inputs (OK1/OK2/AD0/AD1). It’s fully programmable with an 8051(Intel MCS-51) microcontroller. You can see the HU3900-LA(light art) on it. I called it the MegaHits. https://github.com/megahits

MEGAHits in action. It sounds really quiet but it’s actually really loud in person.

I also have some very basic audio skills and I know how to use reaper. I often make weird audio/videos with Reaper just for fun and I learned how to use reaper really fast.

I am sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable.

I am really excited about this course!

Hi Zihang, I will give you the Funny badge. I had a huge smile on my face watching your video edit/mashup. Love how the dance moves match up with the music. Masterful work.
