Showreels:

  

The Redesigns in this reel are chosen to demonstrate designs for a range of subjects from UI and Monsters to weather and vehicles. All from games I have played and felt the wish to attempt to resign. 

The Implementation reel demonstrates a range of projects from my time at university which utilise different implementation techniques. This does not however feature my honours project (see other notable projects). 


Recent Game Projects:

The Story of E. Rose / Lost Selves

 
For the Story of E. Rose I created sound effects requested by the developer,these ranged form error sounds created from EMF noise to water bottle air lock doors. In Lost Selves I worked on character foley and Door sounds.

Other Notable Projects:

The Vale: Shadow of the Crown VR/AR RPG Concept / Navigational Weather System

  
These are both projects I was proud of at university. The Vale redesign aimed to increase immersion with sounds design. The Navigational Weather System was inspired by Ghost of Tsushima (2020) and aimed to recreate its navigational weather system but adding more emphasis on the audio directionality rather than visual aids.

Train Sim World 5: ScotRail Edinburgh Waverley to Glasgow Queen Street Redesign

By
  This redesign is based upon the ScotRail eXpress: Edinburgh to Glasgow TSW5 DLC created by Rivet Games. With this project I aimed to gain a better understanding of the requirements of train recording. This was to attempt to gain some insight to the methods that are used to simulate the sound of the train in the game.  I went out and recorded two lengths of the route over the course of a day, taking time in each station to search for sounds on the outside of the train only audible when idle or when departing.  These were then edited to fit a pre-created video of gameplay. It was an interesting experience especially when trying to record clean audio on a commuter service! Software Used: Reaper Final Cut  OBS

Lost Selves

By
For this project I again collaborated with Distilled Productions Limited. In this project I dealt with character foley and worldalising created sounds by designing reverbs for the game locations. I also created door creaking and lock sounds.  These elements were created by selecting different footwear to denote different characters and recording these on the surfaces such as pavement and wooden floor. These were then edited in Reaper to help distinguish the characters by adding pitch shifts to some characters.  These elements then all had two reverbs created for them depending on the kind of room the player was in.

The Story of E. Rose

By
 This is a game project I worked on for Distilled Productions.  For this project I created audio assets for the game that the game designer could not create themself. These ranged from digital static sounds to notify players of errors to air lock venting sounds.  To achieve these, I recorded sounds and mixed them with EMF recordings and contact microphone recordings to create all the sounds I provided. I then edited these in Reaper to add the post processing the sounds needed to convey the size of the players locations. Play the game: https://distilledproductions.itch.io/the-story-of-e-rose
