UI Artist The user interface artist is responsible for the design, implementation, and optimization of UI assets for a video game. To design and implement user interface assets, the UI artist first works with game designers to understand necessary capabilities of the interface, including navigation, menu options, player modes, and weapon selection. The first step of the design process is to create a series of flowcharts that outline how the player will be able to navigate options through different levels and modes. These outlines may go through a number of revisions before the UI artist arrives at a final plan. Next, the UI artist designs the graphic elements of the interface, including menu animation, colours, fonts, textures, and other variables. They may begin with paper sketches that are reviewed in design meetings, and then deliver several digital mockups for final approval.
