︎ Role: Creative Tech
︎ Tool: Unreal Engine

For the live finale of HYBE and Geffen’s The Debut: Dream Academy, DE-YAN created virtual environments for the performances and the announcement of KATSEYE’s final lineup. The group’s formation was also documented in the Netflix series Pop Star Academy: KATSEYE.

I worked across environment design and creative technology, creating the reflective salt flat for “All the Same” and the virtual stage for the final lineup announcement. My work included building the environments in Unreal Engine and preparing them for real-time playback in the live XR production.
