ABOUT MY INTERNSHIP
In 2020-2021, I interned as a multimedia designer at Tencent's Platform & Content Group, where we focused on developing and managing social media platforms, digital entertainment, and more.
During the internship, my focus was on AR camera app projects such as Wesee, where I handled UX/UI design for features like real-time comic face generation, among others. In the design process, I conducted product reviews and collaborated with product managers for iterative refinements, addressing user pain points while balancing business requirements. Additionally, I was responsible for admin platform UI design and brand design for Tencent Platform & Content Group, ensuring consistent design asset handover to other departments.
