Gerar Martinez

I design, program, and produce real-time interactive experiences using Unreal Engine, TouchDesigner, and Notch, integrating sensors (Orbbec/Kinect), computer vision, OSC/WebSockets, cameras, and APIs. I develop prototypes and PoCs for immersive campaigns with the creative team and adapt content for LED walls, VR, and interactive web (NDI/Spout, Art-Net/DMX). I optimize performance and UX (profiling, culling, material budgets, target latency <120 ms) and participate in technical event production, coordinating suppliers and documenting reproducible pipelines. I drive R&D, evaluating new technologies and proposing scalable interactive solutions for brands and events.

In this role, my function was 3D generalist, creating immersive experiences, video mappings, advertisements, and virtual production.

I teach Advanced Modeling in Autodesk Maya with a focus on production pipelines: hard-surface, organic, clean topology, retopology, UVs, and scene optimization.

I design the curriculum and exercises by milestones (blocking → detail → cleanup → delivery), with weekly "dailies" style feedback (no drama, with criteria).

I train students in industry standards: nomenclature, organization, scales, export, and handoff for texturing/rendering/real-time according to the objective.

I mentor final projects, review deliverables, and prepare students for demo reels/portfolios with solid visual storytelling and "client-presentable" results.

Coordination with the academic team to align content, timelines, and evaluation: less improvisation, more consistency.
