I've been calling them deduction games

14. Sound effects ON for game trailers!

Unless you're making something artsy like the Gears of War "Mad World" trailer include the sound effects. It's a critical part of the game's feel so it should go into the trailer.

Turn music off while you record so you don't have to sync it manually!

2. If you're mixing dialogue and music make sure the music's volume is dipped so the dialogue is audible! Inaudible dialogue over music is a red flag for an inexperienced editor.

If you want to get really advanced, use EQ to carve out space for the dialogue (or just hire a sound mixer!)

I'd like to thank Stephen Baker for his leadership, and Aileen Paron for her collaboration.

I am looking for my next opportunity! As I have nearly a decade of experience in interactive audio, I am looking for my next role as a game audio programmer. If you know of any leads, would love to hear about them. Thanks!

I wouldn't mind a 5 hour talk on musical systems more suited for algorithmic music 👀

It was such a beautiful sunrise this morning
