'''Brett Johnson''' was Level Designer/Composer for Valve (from December 1996 to April 1999http//www.brett3d.com/resumehtm.html Brett Johnson Resume).
==Biography==
On the defunct official ''Half-Life'' website, his function was described as follows ''"Brett's craftsmanship as a musician is matched only by his ability to create traps which snare, snag and frag unwary explorers in 3D environments. Valve lured Brett mid-way through his final year at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and a promising career in biochemistry. A hard-assed New Yorker, Brett continues to deny Seattle's claim to being the birthplace of espresso."''http//web.archive.org/web/19980216132320/http//valvesoftware.com/people.htm http//valvesoftware.com/people.htm
==Work==
*He designed levels for the Black Mesa Research Facility.http//www.brett3d.com/ld_fps.html
*Designed and built prototypes to establish design foundation for ''Half Life''.
*Partnered with engineers to pioneer the scripting system used in ''Half-Life''.
*Created ~30% of the levels for ''Half-Life'' including texturing, lighting, and scripting.
