Just me in the sound room today. My course-mate texted me to say he was feeling ill so wasn't coming in so I got a one-on-one tuition session with the uni's sound specialist for tow hours which was really cool. We discussed how to add layers of environmental sounds in order to better sell a scene to an audience. In our example we had a man working in on office so we sourced about 8 different 'officy' sound effects like keyboard typing and air conditioning. Tomorrow I get a chance to mix them all together to hopefully make a convincing sounding scene and make a man at a desk feel and sound like a whole office block.
Getting home I re-started playing the original Witcher game. Since the third game recently came out with rave reviews I figured it was finally time to catch up and play the first two. The Witcher 1 is a bit of a mixed bag at the moment, while the world is wholly convincing and engaging, it feels like an absolute dinosaur to play. I'll stick it out for the sake of completing it though, things can only get better it seems.
