VR (targeting 90+ FPS).

● Implement and refine lighting solutions (baked, mixed, or real-time) that

complement projected media and environmental textures.

● Profile and optimize GPU/CPU performance (draw calls, texture streaming, LODs) for

VR hardware.

● Work with texture renderers, video planes, and dynamic media integration in Unity

(e.g., RenderTextures, AVPro Video).

● Collaborate with artists to ensure seamless visual cohesion between 3D assets

and media-backed environments.

● Prototype screen-space effects, distortions, and compositing techniques for

immersive interactions.

media-integrated work).

● An eye for visual continuity between 3D assets and projected/dynamic elements.

● Ability to troubleshoot alpha blending, masking, and compositing challenges.
