Placement
I worked as an editor for nDreams. nDreams is a videogame company who specialise in VR video games, working on projects such as Fracked and FarCry VR. This took place over four weeks. I was a Junior Editor working in the Marketing department. I worked on three Rip-o-Matic for them. These were three unique concepts for a single project that was still in the development stage. These were well received and I was asked back as a freelancer to work on a new fourth Rip-o-Matic for the final concept for the project.
