About Brett M. Johnson

Hi!I’m Brett and I’m and Environment/Prop Artist.I’m a trained traditional artist with years of experience in both traditional and digital creation, with a wide variety of industry-level software and workflow knowledge under my belt. I strive to create game-ready environments that any player would love to be immersed in, and strongly believe that my background in 3D art strongly aids me in creating beautifully executed environments and assets.I have been developing simulation environments and assets that have been used to test advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) by the largest OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers in the world for over 4 years. Driven by my passion for animation, video games, and engineering, I love crafting and telling stories for three- dimensional worlds that can be explored and experienced – again and again, by man or machine. I thrive in creative and collaborative environments and have a proven ability to deliver quality results on a deadline. Here’s a quick look at my capabilities. Though I’m skilled in numerous areas of game design, team leadership, 3D modeling, and environment art is my wheelhouse.Please feel free to contact me, and I look forward to meeting you!
