How GAME Genre Impacts Sound Design
(with Lasers!)
with Giorgio Vezzini and Michael Worth
REcorded Sunday June 23rd
To create great sound design for video games, you need to capture not only the essence of the game itself, but also the expectations of the genre – but what does that look like in practice?
In this webinar hosted by sound designer Giorgio Vezzini (Baldur’s Gate 3), and composer Michael Worth (Rush Hour 3), we will create laser weapon sounds in a few different genres – Sci-fi, Retro, and JRPG – showing you how to build a sound palette for your game that reflects the world you're immersed in.

Giorgio has worked on many projects as a sound designer, including Batman: Arkham Knight and Baldur's Gate 3 as Audio Lead. Baldur's Gate 3 has rapidly become a renowned game of its genre, winning 3 BAFTAs and a host of other awards.
He is also a tutor on our MA Sound Design for Video Games course, with over 100 projects and two decades of experience in the video games audio industry, and he will be leading the sound design creation and discussion in this webinar.
