Background

About Cecil Colvin

I’m a proud US Army veteran who develops next-generation technologies to drive how users connect, explore, and interact with information and situations. A subject matter expert in Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality, I am actively changing the face of technology by integrating engineering, art, and animation to help people learn and experience untenable situations. I have strong attention to detail and I’m able to develop new tools, extend existing functions, implement interactions under specific technical and artistic requirements, and integrate assets. My digital art background combines great technical and engineering skills with creativity and aesthetic sensibilities that stand out. I’m an experienced video editor and animated graphics designer with the ability to identify best solutions and techniques for conveying complex information through thoughtful storytelling. I’m passionate about empowering people to perform at their best by combining real-world experience with cutting-edge technology. Some of my recent achievements include: • Designed and implemented comprehensive 6-week training program to allow students to simulate working in an extremely hazardous environment. • Cross-platform design iterations for WMR, SteamVR, and Oculus. • Creator of VR experiences to help underprivileged youth comprehend theoretical concepts, like physics theories and history, • Spearheaded initial creations that helped to solidify a $20M contract award. • Created a VR experience where physical objects were mapped/merged into virtual space, allowing users to interact with objects in both worlds.
