ELLEN SEEGER

Hey there, I am Ellen!

As a current game design student in Berlin, I am driven by a passion to inspire people through interactive and touching experiences.

I believe that this is best achieved through storytelling and light, two mediums that I aspire to bridge.

My objective is to become a professional in both game design and light design, striving to develop innovative ways to combine my fields of expertise and creating compelling work in each.

Education

Currently: Bachelor of Arts in Game Design at the HTW Berlin

German (native), English (fluent), French (elementary), Korean (elementary)

Profile

(Games) Writing, UI design, Level design, Light design and engineering, Project management

Software experience

Unreal Engine 5, Unity, GrandMA3, DMX Control 3, Maya, Adobe Photoshop, Peocreate, GitHub, Miro, Notion, Affinity Publisher, Sony Vegas Pro, Davinci Resolve, Libre Office.

A major part of my studies consists of team and project work, which have taught me how to cooperate with a wide variety of people and also give me the chance to learn a huge amount of other soft- and hard skills, such as project and team management, which is a task that I enjoy and usually comes naturally to me.

Topic wise, I have found particular enthusiasm in the areas of level and UI design as well as games writing, as I have a deep love of bringing worlds and characters to life.

Currently, I am deepening my experiences with light design and light engineering for my bachelors thesis, after having worked for a few months in the event industry as part of an internship.
