It’s been great having you in the spotlight this month, kudos to Designing Sound for pulling together an epic set of articles.

 

In your recent article on the role of the Audio Director you spent a fair amount of time discussing implementation and the recently adopted title of “Technical Sound Designer” as someone who spends 80% or more of their time working on implementation and sound defects.

 

It seems like, in the not too long ago past, that implementation was seen as a “stepping stone” for Sound Designers or Musician’s to get their foot in the door in order to eventually move “up” to Sound Design or Music.

 

I’m curious as to whether you feel that the Technical Sound Design role has gained traction across the industry as it’s own specialization?

 

Are there aspects of game audio that you wish would get more attention from professionals on the development (non-audio) side?

 

Are there any techniques or technologies for interactive sound that you would like to see more of/ used more often across the industry?

 

Care to share any visions of the future for game sound?

 

Steady on,

-damian

What would you say to the students that are just graduating, and want to know how to break into the game audio production world. What kind of demo should they have (to stand out), and how should they approach contacting development teams?

Thank you so much for your time!

I have a (or a few) question for you

What techniques do you use for designing sounds? Using synths or recording sounds from landscapes etc? or maybe both?

How long do you spend on making a particular sound, say a bullet firing from a gun?

How much does the work flow differ from movie effect?
