Jeff Hesser

Artist @Harmonix Music Systems

I have served in many roles at Harmonix. I began as a character artist and evolved into a generalist with knowledge of many aspects of the game art pipeline. As the Lead Environment artist on Disney Fantasia: Music Evolved I managed a small team of artists that worked closely with Designers, Musicians and Coders to create dynamically interactive spaces and objects. My team worked on the initial interactive design and gray box layout of each scene and then integrated the final assets back into the scene after they worked their way through the concept art and modeling pipeline. I have also worked on small R&D teams developing ideas for mobile devises and virtual reality headsets.
