Great sound design has the ability to enhance the gaming experience while creating emotional narrative and dynamic impact. Gain valuable insights into sound design, composition, and dialogue in this specialist course.
You'll source original sound through Foley-studio style recording, synthesis, and location or site-specific sound capture. Within gaming, music composition ranges from traditional orchestration and arranging to more abstract, electronic, or urban production. You'll explore composition and the dialogue/voiceover recording and editing that often complements it. You'll also learn audio post-production skills such as editing, processing, producing, and mixing, with a strong focus on the techniques used to implement this audio content into interactive game environments through industry-standard software known as Middleware.
Our goal in designing this course is to give you the freedom to explore creatively while instilling the technical skills you'll need to forge a career in this exciting industry. As your studies progress, you'll collaborate on industry-style projects, offering insights into team working and responding to a game designer or director's brief. Collaborations with students across other areas such as Creative Computing, Acting, and Music (game designers, voice actors, producers, and musicians) are encouraged.
