EVENT DETAILS |
Why do we feel calmer when there's a light rain outside? Why do low, held notes create a feeling of dread? How come long echoing sounds leave us feeling lonely & isolated? In games, subtle sound & music clues can have a really powerful effect on the player, but too often audio for games is left to the last minute.
Only 12 spots available for this one-night class.
Class DescriptionIn this class, we'll equip you with the tools to think proactively about music & sound for your games. We'll cover audio production fundamentals, like working with reverb, delays, & EQ, as well as free, powerful tools for shaping & implementing audio on a budget. We'll also look at different ways of making music, from chiptune sounds to sampling & beyond. Finally, we'll talk about ways that developers can build collaborations with freelance audio designers & musicians, & see some unique games where the audio really shines.
**Must bring your own laptop**
