Hey folks, I rerecorded my 2024 GameSoundCon talk "Unreal Audio Essentials (Abridged)" as a 2hr off-the-cuff version. www.youtube.com/watch?v=swS6... #UnrealAudio #Essentials #Keyword

I'm certainly not complaining, but somehow #Arrhenius ended up on the "Popular" page for physical games on itch. For the last few months, I've been lucky if I get 4 or 5 views a day. Today there have been over 60. !!! So, I dunno whom to thank, but "Thanks, whomever" jesseharlin.itch.io/arrhenius

Streaming with @ebuch.bsky.social and David Weaver in about 20 minutes! www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVtB...

Discovering I might just be 36 trillion cells in a trench coat. Obviously I'm exaggerating, I've never owned a trench coat.

Join the Tech Audio Chat this Thursday along with @ebuch.bsky.social and David Weaver where we'll be checking out the latest in UE 5.7: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVtB... #UnrealEngine #Audio #Features

It's easy to get annoyed at people who are all like "do you know who I am?" but you should be nice just in case they're masking for amnesia and are hoping you know.

Noisevember Day 03: Rainforest Pure synthesis, but could've spent a lot longer on it--like a whole week at least: www.youtube.com/watch?v=patl... #MetaSound #UnrealAudio #Procedural #Synthesis

Congrats on the milestone! May you swiftly hit the next! Here's some pieces I haven't posted in a long while: my old Sweeney Todd Vis Dev!

Something, something middle management.

#Noisevember25 is back! Here's an advanced look at your prompts for next month - starting on November 1st at airwiggles.com/noisevember! #musicproduction #sounddesign

When discussing last night’s power outages and the outage map, my phone auto completed it as “outrage map” and I think that’s beautiful.

Here's an old diagram of the Unreal Audio Engine I made a while back. It's since changed, but most of it is still accurate: #UE5 #UnrealAudio #MetaSound

I used to make yearly donations to Wikimedia Foundation, but after talking to several friends in the nonprofit space, I've switched to recurring monthly donations instead. The predictable income stream helps them plan for the future. Throwing it out there for ppl looking for the best way to support

Ghost Writing is institutionalized exploitation! No excuses, credit your team!

Hey everyone, we have some big news to share!

Had a cool chat with Max Hayes and James Nixon last night about the challenges with demonstrating skills in technical audio within the game industry. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqPp...

On overnight essays: I wrote a 4 page essay on the first sentence of the first paragraph of Jane Eyre and got an A- on it for my Lit Analysis class having read only the first chapter and a synopsis of the book. When I say I have a BA in English: Creative Writing, I want you to know my whole meaning!

youtu.be/CtICKj0oXd4 Some ingame footage. I lead the audio team, shaped the mix, and did most of the sound design in this clip. - Awesome music from @troupe.bsky.social and @joelcorelitz.bsky.social - Add'l sound design from @akashthakkar.com - Audio tech from www.linkedin.com/in/horaciova...

Here are some recent examples of my work! youtu.be/ggpu09U2CFk Some isolated sfx design for player special attacks

Dear authors, Every time your characters speak, especially when delivering exposition, they should be furthering our understanding of their character and role in the story. Don't just info dump. Respectfully, A reader.

Had a great time tonight chatting with Brian Michael Fuller and @ebuch.bsky.social about mixing! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd8p... #GameAudio #Mixing #ChatChatChat

Today is my last day at Blizzard! Working with the World of Warcraft team has been such a fun, positive experience. I can't wait for players to see what we made together. Now I'm looking for my next role in games, full time or contract, indie or AAA. You can check out my portfolio on my website! 🖤

New experimental feature in MetaSounds found in Unreal Engine 5.7 is Live Audition update while editing a MetaSound! www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TU8...

Creativity is not divine. Creativity is not talent. Creativity is a practice, it is an exercise. If you're not feeling creative, you need to practice creating. Breaking a writer's block is only achieved by writing through the block! GenAI doesn't unlock your creativity, it atrophies it.

Imagine hiring the best engineers in the industry and then having them reach for the mediocre output of gen AI. What a way to realize your quality bar is way lower than what you're paying for. Who needs the best engineers in that scenario?

Horray! I am psyched to be joined by the fabulous @pengarr.postes.club, @lauraintravia.bsky.social , Kelsey Mira, Annette Walker and @jillianaversa.bsky.social for our panel at #SoundGirls Virtual Conference this December:) tinyurl.com/SoundGirlsVi... #women #voice #singing #arranging #recording

Tonight's stream found us demonstrating techniques for runtime procedural variation in MetaSounds and revisiting the oxbow river formation example with a lighter weight real-time solution that has the same smooth result! #Unreal #Audio #Variation #MetaSound #MetaData #DoesAustraliaHaveCream #Tea

Going live with @ebuch.bsky.social and David Weaver in about 15 minutes: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8Bw... Returning from a short break! Ready to eat MetaSounds for breakfast again!
