John Burnett is —

an award-winning user interface artist, user experience designer for 15 years in game and app design with AAA companies like Electronic Arts, Activision, id Software, King, and Google.

I specialize in outsourcing UI and 2D art for companies great and soon-to-be-great as a one-stop shop; from conceptualization to wireframing to asset creation all the way to marketing!

Available for contractual or full-time consultation and always ready to talk, I’d love to bring my experience, expertise, and energy to your current project!

Behind the Scenes

Seismic Games, headquartered near Santa Monica, is comprised of some Industry veterans with some rather astounding connections. During their formative years pitching ideas, they enlisted my help with their Hollywood-infused mobile trivia game Behind the Scenes. Duties included traditional UI and UX design, but tailored around pitch-material to major motion picture studios in Los Angeles.

Pitch material works a bit differently than rote user interface design. You’re mostly about the sizzle, so it has to lean more towards the exciting than the practical. And yet, all the work has to exist within the realm of the practical – lest you throw away months of work if the best-case scenario happens and a Client wants to move forward. So in developing Behind the Scenes, we paid special attention towards creating arresting material for prospective with a modular design for rapid iteration.
