Hello! Welcome back to episode thirty-one of our monthly podcast about games and game audio. This month, we have a chat about showreels, and how to best approach showreels as a sound designer in the games industry. We go over some basic info and talk a bit about our experience making reels over the years. We also talk about Avengers: Endgame, Shazam!, Death Stranding, Raising Kratos, Divinity: Original Sin II, Austin Wintory's GDC 2019 talk The 'Banner Saga' Franchise: Making Indie Sound AAA and many more fun things.
This month, we're really excited to be sponsored by our friends at Pro Sound Effects! They have sent us over a copy of 'Bass Machine', a new library from their Sonomar Collection. We have a chat about the library in the episode, and we've also made a couple of videos for you to hear more of the library, here and here. You can also get a fantastic $50 off the library, when using the code 'SOUNDBYTES' at the checkout! Thanks PSE!
