Biography[ | ]
Hailing from Toronto, Tsang originally worked in the comic industry while in high school; he got into American comics shortly after the 90s comics boom. At college, he studied classical animation. After graduation, he wasn't sure if he wanted to pursue either industry. Some of his friends who had graduated earlier pointed toward an opportunity to do concept art for video games. He decided to give it a shot.[5]
His work on Overwatch includes the hand-drawn artwork seen at the start of the game's cinematic trailer,[1] and he has worked on the production of the game's animated shorts.[6] He had formerly worked on Project Titan.[7] The last hero he worked on before his departure was Kiriko. After leaving Blizzard he co-founded Azuki, an NFT project.
