On Monday 13th November, the Melbourne Section of the AES held our (slightly delayed) bi-monthly meeting.
Game Sound Designer/Educator/Musician David Lauritsen presented on the topic of:
Video Game Sound Design and Curriculum Development:
Developing the Skills for a Growing Field
After a brief introduction from Section Chairman Graeme Huon, David started his presentation by outlining his history as a musician and developing an interest in audio engineering, leading to his study for a Bachelor of Audio Engineering and a Masters of Creative Industries. He briefly covered his audio recording work at Coloursound and Black Pearl Studios, and film sound work, moving on to audio education at JMC Academy and ultimately into game sound design at Big Ant Studios (AFL23 and Cricket24)
