Phoenix Khanzhina
@phoenixkhanzhina
I build immersive game narratives and visual experiences across games, film, and digital design.
What I'm looking for
I lead narrative design at Sunroot Games, directing creative vision and worldbuilding for an independent game while authoring narrative documents, character arcs, lore, dialogue, and in-game text.
At P1 Games, I develop storylines, character dialogue, and lore that strengthen player immersion. I work closely with design and art teams to bring storytelling into gameplay and keep narrative work aligned with creative direction and timelines.
I've also created streaming overlays, game character cards, promotional visuals, and social content as a freelance digital designer. My film experience includes set design for Caniff Cine Productions, where I shaped visual atmosphere, scene dressing, and continuity for a short fashion film.
Beyond creative production, I coordinate studio operations at Six Sides Gaming Studio and have produced theatre projects and community events. I bring organized communication, practical planning, and a collaborative approach to multidisciplinary teams.
