Annual Pre-GDC Meetup on Sunday March 18th

Wait, why is there a company logo at the head of this post?! For the last few years, we've held a community meetup in San Franciso the Sunday of the week of GDC. We're continuing that tradition this year, but this time we've got a sponsor! You may have spotted this on our Facebook or Twitter feeds already, but this year we're doing something a little special.

A Conversation with Ben Burtt on Perseverance

This interview was originally conducted for inclusion in our "Failure" theme. Some extenuating circumstances kept it in the wings for a while, but it's Ben Burtt. How could we not post it?! ...and, you know, better late than never! DS: This month we’re looking at the subject of failure... BB: [Laughs] Really? DS: Yeah, we’re going a little self reflective with our theme … [Read more...]

In the Field with Gordon Hempton

In the Field with Gordon Hempton

I’ve heard some really great things in the past about the Wild Eyes recording workshop. Our own Luca Fusi did a write up about his experience. We’ve also recently heard about other similar workshops in South Africa and Australia. While it’s great to see the availability of these, my schedule is so unpredictable that it’s hard to commit to attending one. I started this year … [Read more...]

A Case Study in Quad-Binaural Mixing for Linear VR/360

A Case Study in Quad-Binaural Mixing for Linear VR/360

In the fall of 2016, I was asked to sound design and mix a VR/360 short called UTURN. While there’s a lot of discussion surrounding immersive/3D sound for games, I don’t see a lot of conversation on the linear side. I’ve been meaning to get something written up regarding the approach we took, and my schedule finally lightened up enough to for me to follow through on … [Read more...]

Brice Carrington Saga Continues?

UPDATE (9/12/18): It has been brought to our attention that the civil case brought by Ms. Lewis against Mr. Wilson and Internatioanl Fitness, LLC (Case No. BC645841, click here and use that number to access the court records) was dismissed in September of 2017. Dismissed merely means the case has run its course. It should be noted that this was a civil case; NOT a criminal … [Read more...]

And the Grand Prize Winner is…

And the Grand Prize Winner is…

When we designed this event, we wanted to reward people for their participation and involvement in the little arm of the community that is Designing Sound Exchange. We also generally kept the various methods we used to select winners secret until we were no longer using them. We wanted people to participate in a natural manner, not try to game the system. It was early in the … [Read more...]
