About

I’m Johnny Choong, a creative and energetic professional who enjoys designing and optimizing visual assets for interactive and cinematic work. I bring a proactive, adaptable mindset and a strong work ethic, using both traditional art skills and modern AI workflows to help teams deliver engaging visuals for desktop and mobile platforms.

Through roles ranging from lead 3D modeling to freelance 3D generalist work, I’ve supported production teams with end-to-end creation—modeling, sculpting, texturing, lighting, compositing, and optimization. I also enjoy learning quickly in new environments, and I’m motivated to take on fresh challenges while delivering value across diverse projects.
