So grateful for the opportunity to co-host a game audio morning meetup at GDC and to contribute to an IGDA workshop on prototyping green games. I love these communities and want the best for them. How was your #gdc?

The proceeds for my sound library are going towards @earthpercent.bsky.social: the music industry's vehicle for fighting climate change. All the log splits, thuds, and chops are from a Douglas Fir that was used for firewood afterward.

Recording log splits with the help of @cpsqueaks.bsky.social and @alecviera.bsky.social! These sounds are always tough to find in stock libraries. Gear used: Rode NTG5 & Blimp, Mix-Pre 6 II, K-Tek Stingray bag, Li-on battery.

Lavaliers have been great for field recording. Using them to record in stereo has been ideal for outdoor ambiences, species recording, pass-bys. I'm using Clippy EM272s, a pistol grip, and a Gator Frameworks bar (with windmuffs) to do an A/B setup.

Dynamic mics are great for recording loud sounds, your voice, and in environments that are really noisy. They are harder to break than other mics (ask my cat), so they're a good first-microphone to buy. What do you want to learn about recording?

Contact mics are ideal for capturing experimental sounds. They pick up vibrations through surfaces they touch and often liquid, making some hydrophones too! Info on how to utilize them can be found here: www.sabrinafedele.com/post/how-to-...

Electromagnetic Field Microphones pick up the hidden world of electronics. They're great for recording household appliances and powered gizmos. These, and how to record with other types of mics, is what I'll be discussing in a guest lecture at USC soon!

We made it! Airborne Empire has officially been released in Early Access on Steam. This is my first official game credit and I couldn't be more grateful that it's on this wonderful city builder. Check it out!

The wonderful @cpsqueaks.bsky.social 3D printed and assembled this turret from Portal & Portal 2 for me! I experienced those games for the very first time earlier this month and absolutely love them.
