I’m Pingting Ji, a game designer who architects the bridge between dreams and reality.
I have an Advertising background(in creating campaigns) and an Interactive Design background(in designing games and other types of interactives).
When I was still a high school student, an anime called Sword Art Online blew my mind many years ago. In that story, players can deeply emerge into the virtual world with all their senses. I was so looking forward to playing a game like that. Later on, movies like Ready Player One showed up, and I started to believe that games are changing the world. Not only from the technical side, like the development of virtual reality, augmented reality, and mixed reality, but also the incredible power to build a better world.
As a result, I continued my master's study in the Interactive Media program, game design track, in the past two years at the University of Miami. I learned how to create a bridge between the virtual world and reality and use games as a tool to make social impacts.
I'm both interested in building commercial games and social impact games after graduation. I am interested in the positions like game designer, narrative designer, and character designer in the industry. I am familiar with tools like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe InDesign, Adobe XD and Procreate for design. I also use Unity, GameSalad, and Twine to develop games.
