2012

First of all, Happy New Year! I am sorry that I have been a bit lazy recently updating my blog, but there’s a lot on at the moment and I am pretty sure 2012 will be a very exciting year for me.

I am currently working on several different projects: BOOM Library is going out in the field again to provide fresh sounds for 2012. Make sure you stay tuned for any updates! Axel Rohrbach is working hard on our “Guns 2″ library and I am sure it is going to blow people away again – literally!! We have also just released “The Interface” where I had a co-supervising role besides creating a bunch of sfx for it as well. You can read my short article about it on Designing Sound.

At Dynamedion we are working on of the most exciting AAA titles coming in 2012. Right now I am still sworn to secrecy but the first thing I will do is to announce the game’s title when the developer releases first insights. We were also officially nominated for the “German Developers Award 2011″ and awarded for the best soundtrack: Crysis 2 – Congrats to my composer mates!

I am also very pleased to announce my constant growing working relationship with award winning composer Walter Mair. You may know him from soundtracks for the “Inception”, “Avatar” and “Transformers” trailers or from parts of the “Batman – Dark Knight” Soundtrack. Our collaboration of work for the “Pixomondo Showreel” was just the beginning and there are a lot more exciting projects to come.

While being busy working 24/7 I am also writing my master thesis regarding “The Mediumship of the Listener” and creating sound effects for our master game “Balloon Quest”.

I hope the world will survive 2012, I am not yet ready for the apocalypse!!

Cheers, David
