Ambience audio direction, design, and implementation
Combat design direction, system concepting, implementation and design
Reverb system and IR design and implementation
Nominated for BEST SOUND DESIGN IN GAMING in 2022's Music and Sound Awards
I joined the Jurassic World Evolution 2 team at the beginning of my time at Frontier, as the project was coming out of pre-production, and have been working on it ever since!
The opportunity to work on such a famous IP with so many famous sounds and stories that have had a profound effect on so many lives really is a huge honour.
I was able to work on a massive variety of areas within the game, including dinosaur, UI and vehicle design and implementation, setting up Wwise systems for features such as ambiences and storms, and linear sound design for in-game cinematics.
I worked as part of a small team provided by Frontier to Complex Games for audio support on the bosses of the game.
We provided a complete audio pass on all elements of these bosses, particularly focusing on their combat abilities, foley and vocalisations.
FRACTURED VEIL
Fractured Veil - a multiplayer, open-world survival game based in Lahaina, Hawaii.
I worked with Ironbelly Studios on this project as the sole Sound Designer in 2019. I provided support and design for a first pass and Wwise/Unreal implementation of many of the games' audio systems including player foley, weapons and ambiences.
The game is in open development and more information can be gathered on the website:
I was involved with the Planet Zoo DLC cycle for the Grasslands and Twilight Packs, helping with animal design, dialogue implementation and music editing.
LINEAR RE-DESIGNS
MINI-
REDESIGNS
(2024)
Stressing the importance of foley and sound editing, this re-design puts more focus on conveying a realistic and believable soundscape to immerse the viewer in the story. After experimenting with different soundtracks and varying degrees of inclusion, I found that the lyrics of "The Man Comes Around" by Johnny Cash fitted the action too perfectly to not include.
The voice actors can be found here (male) and here (female).
TOP GUN MAVERICK
Working with some afterburner sounds lead me towards redesigning a slightly edited section of Top Gun Maverick.
FISH TANK BOSS
A 1 hour challenge for redesigning a scene from a "Boss Fight" montage. The full montage can be seen here.
STARFIELD
A short clip for some weapon design.
Experimenting with slower paced visuals is something I previously hadn't entertained much, but I couldn't resist taking this trailer and re-working the style of the audio. The original trailer makes use of fast-paced music to juxtapose the slow motion imagery, but I have sought to embrace the somewhat dreamy state of the imagery in the soundscape. Taking inspiration from the soundtrack of Bladerunner, this trailer follows a more musical and suggestive development than some of my other work.
