Composer:

As the lead composer for Riptide I composed a variety of songs to fit the games various environments and menus. This process always started with consulting with the designers to establish what the look and the feel of a given level or menu would be. Music is important both in laying the foundation for and enhancing existing visual themes. 

Sound Designer:

As the acting lead sound designer for Riptide I was tasked with handling sound effects from creation to implementation.  The creation process for each sound effect would begin with a conversation with designers and artists. I bring up what the given object/action might sound like and what real world objects we could pull inspiration from. For Riptide, the artists were already pulling inspiration from real world navy weapons and armaments for the weapons of the ships in game. This meant I could also pull some auditory inspiration 

Dialogue Designer:

As I was the lead dialogue designer for Riptide I worked closely with our team's narrative designer to get a sense for what each character should sound like. After the casting process I worked to help set up recording sessions with equipment as well as help to organize, edit, and implement the voice lines from those recording sessions.
