Burnett's contributions for Disney were largely a part of the 1990s Disney Afternoon, where he was attached to the Gummi Bears and various projects set in the Scrooge McDuck universe. Because of his primary focus on televised animation, he has occasionally been involved in film projects related to a parent television program.
