Everything about making video games is harder than you think.

What if UI feedback sounded more musical? Created an alternative audio take on Xuanyi Li’s UI animation for MEDA’s music video “Rollback.” A more retro-futuristic, 80s style on this one... Here is the Original by Xeksenk: www.behance.net/gallery/2157...

Thanks Ed! 😍

Just finished a quickdesign exercise using synth layers in this visuals of a Esoteric Device VFX by Lefi S using UE5 Niagara. FORM + Prism in NI Reaktor were key tools for the sound here, specially the “Tetris” moment 🎧 Fun little experiment!

This is so cool! 👏🏼 #F125

This one is not the happiest topic, but an important one:
I’m teaming up with Augie Restivo at #AirCon25 to talk about project cancellations & job rejections in game audio and how to stay sane

🗓️ Mon, June 9 · 6PM BST
📍 www.airwiggles.com/c/live-event...

Don’t miss it!

Who says foley doesn’t take physical effort? 😄 Been venturing out more with my friend Augie to record the world around us. A neighbourhood zipline + Sanken CO100K & 8050 = funnn! #FieldRecording #SoundDesign #FoleyArt

Saw WARFARE in the cinema yesterday. One of the most intense experiences I've ever had in a film, a masterclass in tension, realism and sound design.

I'm genuinely curious if my heart rate ever dropped below 130 bpm 🤯

Saw this UE5 CS2 remake and had to add sound.
Slow-mo window scene is a perfect playground for the shell pass by, breaking glass, and rainy int/ext. Good exercise!

YouTube video by Giovane Webster Foley & Field Rec. Vid

Quick vid about foley & filed recording. Balancing realism and impact is crucial in sourcing material, finding that sweet spot between authentic and larger-than-life is the key - but is always a constant learning process!

YouTube video by Giovane Webster Cutscene Audio Redesign - Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 | Voice Acting Experiment

Redesign for a COD: Black Ops 6 cutscene, including doing all the voices myself! A bit of the process & breakdown of dialogue, ambience, Foley & SFX, & music. Lots to improve, but it was fun impersonating Adler & Sims! Feedback welcome!🔉 #AudioRedesign

Holiday sound design challenge, inspired by Jordan Welke's (x.com/Hammer_Welke) amazing inspection pistol animation. Used cloth, nylon, & umbrella recordings to capture the pistol handling, whooshes and to add a bit of originality. Happy learning! 🎄 #endofyearexercise #gameaudio #fps #quickdesign

Saw this amazing TMNT animation on my feed and used it for some audio practice. Really great stuff from @arondurkin
.bsky.social and other incredible artists 😁
