Zayden Joyner

Designer of immersively accessible worlds that enrapture audiences.

What I Do

UX Design

Visual design and ownership of user experiences & solutions with a focus on human-centered design.

Illustration

Polished digital illustrations and paintings, with a special focus in fantasy environment and character-focused subject matter.

Graphic Art

High-end graphic design and concepting for use in game interfaces, web assets, and branding.

I love collaborating with other creatives to build beautiful and impactful experiences.

I’ve worked on game development in small and large teams of interdisciplinary students as well as a AAA internship at Undead Labs.

I have thorough experience in 2D art and illustration, wireframing and prototyping in Figma, 3D modeling and rigging, and use of game engines that allows me to successfully navigate game development teamwork with a robust pipeline knowledge.

The games I have worked in include 1 AAA game, 8+ prototypes, 2 full games, 3 museum exhibits, and more!
