Harald Zlattinger is a Senior Technical Artist for Ryse. He always wanted to work with computers, so he specialized in multimedia and soon realized that technical tasks and 3D modeling was most comfortable to him. Having had an interest in videogames from a very early age, it seemed like the logical choice to start working in that industry. Harald first worked on BattleForge at Electronic Arts, and then moved to Crytek’s Ryse team, following his passion to improve games’ visual quality.
