If I had one suggestion to those just starting in sound design, it would be to stay curious. Interrogate the world and objects around you. See what they have to say. I talk a lot about mastering, metadata, mixing, & more, but a sense of play is the best thing we could possibly have in our toolkit.

Some positive feedback in the wild!… on X no less 🤷🏻♂️ (I worked on the ramp/fire)
@icechoir.bsky.social @brandon.insertcredit.com first of all, adoring Demonschool. Huge congrats. I was curious if there’s any universe the FMOD session could be shared or broken down. Think it could be a great project for junior sound designers to see. A big ask I know, and maybe more selfish 😬
Coolest job with the coolest people. The team made some genuinely awesome stuff in this update. Simpsons fans are gonna love it!

My home is filled with Merrie Melodies lately: I'm thrilled to share that later this month I'll be starting as a Technical Audio Designer with Warner Bros. Entertainment! Excited beyond measure to start with such a powerhouse of a team, and thanks to @ryansim.bsky.social for taking the chance on me.
Can’t believe I get to say this: in two weeks I’ll be working for @warnerbrothers.bsky.social as a Technical Sound Designer. The team is absolutely stellar, including the inimitable @ryansim.bsky.social who took a chance on me. So excited to take my first step into #GameAudio !
I would pay a comical amount of money to hear the Death Stranding "like" sound whenever I do something productive around the house. #gameaudio #deathstranding #financialadvisor

It's a bummer to me that it's even become a David vs. Goliath thing to begin with - both types of dev teams rock for different reasons.
localthunk@localthunk.com · last yr.People and media often say Balatro was made by 'one guy'. I feel like that unfortunately may be stoking the flames of this David vs. Goliath narrative a tiny bit No it was not 'one guy', look at the dang in-game credits
Our little game jam game was recommended in here! So dope - big fan of Girl Mode and all they do.

Just dug up this sound redesign I made for one of my most anticipated games: ABYSS X ZERO. Can't wait to redesign like... 100000 clips from this game. Studio Pixel Punk (@tianipixel.bsky.social and @ironfairy.bsky.social) are on another level. #SoundDesign #GameAudio #IndieGame

Around this time every year, I share a list of ways to support Native people. From supporting Indigenous people seeking abortion care to defending Native voting rights and keeping Native families together, here are some causes worth supporting. 🧵
