Guest host Alistair Hirst returns to Dolby Creator Talks to speak with the audio team behind "Star Wars Outlaws," one of the most successful games of last year. Developed by Ubisoft's Massive Entertainment in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, the title delivers a rich, cinematic gameplay experience — thanks to its immersive sound design and dynamic score. Recently nominated for a BAFTA in Audio Achievement, the team shares how they built the game's soundscape from the ground up, mixing original Star Wars recordings with new field material to create unique environments, iconic weapons, and vehicles. They also explain how Dolby Atmos® was used to deepen the spatial realism — from starships above to rain on rooftops — and how their creative approach to sound design gave the game its gritty, signature edge.“First and foremost, we landed on three main pillars... The first of them being a cinematic experience... We really wanted to tell a story using audio... The second was making it a true and authentic Star Wars experience... And finally, we coined the phrase we call the scoundrel sound... It's about keeping the grit from the original trilogy, but also updating the sounds to make them sound fresh and new.”—Simon Koudriavtsev, Audio Director, "Star Wars Outlaws"Joining today's conversation from Massive Entertainment: - Simon Koudriavtsev - Audio Director - Jacob Coles - Lead Audio Designer - Martin Weissberg - Principal Audio Designer - Simon Siegfried Klar - Senior Audio DesignerBe sure to check out "Star Wars Outlaws," available now in Dolby Atmos®, on supported platforms.Please subscribe to Dolby Creator Talks wherever you get your podcasts.You can also check out the video for this episode on YouTube.Learn more about the Dolby Creator Lab and check out Dolby.com.

This podcast is about big ideas on how technology is making life better for people with vision loss. When it comes to navigation technology for people who are blind or visually impaired, many apps utilize voice commands, loud tones or beeps, or haptic feedback. In an effort to create a more natural, seamless experience, the team at BenVision has created a different type of system that allows users to navigate using musical cues instead! For this episode, Dr. Cal spoke with BenVision's CEO and co-founder, Patrick Burton, along with its Technology Leadd, Aaditya Vaze. They shared about the inspiration behind BenVision, how they're able to create immersive soundscapes that double as navigation aids, and the exciting future applications this technology could offer. The episode also features BenVision's other co-founder and Audio Director, Soobin Ha. Soobin described her creative process for designing BenVision's soundscapes, how she harnesses the power of AI, and her bold vision of what's to come. Lighthouse Guild volunteer Shanell Matos tested BenVision herself and shares her thoughts on the experience. As you'll hear, this technology is transformative!   The Big Takeaways Why Music? Navigation technology that uses voice, tone, or haptics can create an added distraction for some users. But the brain processes music differently. Instead of overloading the senses, for some users music works alongside them, allowing them to single out separate sound cues, or take in the entire environment as a whole. Like how the different instruments correspond to various characters in “Peter and the Wolf,” BenVision assigns unique musical cues to individual objects. User Experience: Shanell Matos appreciated how BenVision blends in more subconsciously, allowing her to navigate a space without having to be as actively engaged with the process. Additional Applications: BenVision began as an augmented reality program, and its creators see a potential for it to grow beyond a navigational tool to expand for use by people who are visually impaired or fully sighted. For example, it could be used to create unique soundscapes for museums, theme parks, and more, augmenting the experience in exciting new ways. The Role of AI: Artificial Intelligence already plays a big role in how BenVision works, and its creators see it being even more important in the future. BenVision already harnesses AI for object detection and its companion app uses AI to provide instant voice support about the immediate surroundings if needed. Moving forward, AI could be used to help instantaneously generate new sound cues or to help users customize their experience at the press of a button.   Tweetables “We thought that if the human brain can learn echolocation and we have this amazing technology that's available to us in the modern day, then why can't we make echolocation a little bit more intuitive and perhaps a little bit more pleasant.” — Patrick Burton, BenVision CEO & Co-Founder “You can think of it like a bunch of virtual speakers placed at different locations around the user. So like a speaker on a door or a couch or a chair. And then there are sounds coming from all these virtual speakers at the same time.” — Aaditya Vaze, BenVision Technology Lead “I want to gamify this idea so that the user can actually find some interest and joy by using it, rather than just find it only helpful, but also [to create ] some pleasant feeling.” — Soobin Ha, BenVision Audio Director & Co-Founder “So if there's a lot of people, there's a lot of conversations happening, a lot of sounds happening, a lot of movement happening. It's really difficult to keep up with what everything is doing. Whereas with music, it's not as difficult to pick out layers.” – Shanell Matos, Lighthouse Guild Volunteer   Contact Us: Contact us at podcasts@lighthouseguild.org with your innovative new technology ideas for people with vision loss.   Pertinent Links Lighthouse Guild BenVision

One of the reasons behind the immense popularity of this hit multiplayer roleplaying game is its incredible soundtrack. Today, we are joined by the Audio Director of Larian Studios — the makers of “Baldur's Gate 3” — Stefan Randelshofer, along with our guest host, Dolby's Senior Game Developer Relations Manager, Alistair Hirst, in a live discussion from this year's Game Developers Conference, to discuss what went into creating the rich, sonic atmosphere of the video game.“There is a complete architecture for 3D audio that allows you to listen to 3D audio objects. You can make that work automatically and you can facilitate those 3D audio objects and that gives you so many chances to be more immersed in what you're doing. In a world like Baldur's Gate, there's so much stuff going on. In the city, when people talk around you. You have a cool combat — if you have one of the spells fly by. So it really gives you the perspective of being there. Therefore, that was the reason for me to go into this Dolby setup”—Stefan Randelshofer, Audio Director, “Baldur's Gate 3”Be sure to check out “Baldur's Gate 3”, available on PC, Steam, and consoles.Please subscribe to Dolby Creator Talks wherever you get your podcasts.You can also check out the video for this episode.Learn more about the Dolby Institute and check out Dolby.com.

Did you miss Part 1 of my conversation with Audio Branding's Jodi Krangle? Listen to it here. Takeaways from today's episode: 1. Imposter syndrome and the art of the interview When she started hosting, Jodi Krangle, who makes her living using her voice, had to overcome one big negative belief.  “I didn't think I was a speaker of any kind!” she says. It was hard for her to speak her own words, believe she had something worth saying, and be passionate enough to get her thoughts across. That was all harder than she expected – but she persevered. All of this is learnable, and mindset is the first thing we often need to change.2. Why does sound matter?Let's take a look at the advertising industry for some clues. They spend millions of dollars crafting the right sounds and voices. Why? Because they know that sound can create deeper connections with the audience. We don't buy things because of logic, but because of emotion. Brands use sound to communicate something distinct, unique, and ownable – so how are you using audio to communicate just how special, and different, you are from the crowd? 3. Your sonic brand is worth millions.If you work for an organization or a brand, you may already have a podcast or be thinking about starting one. When you do, make sure your show not only integrates with the rest of your communications, but also that it's as high quality as everything else you put out into the world. Audio creates a brand, just as much as your visuals do. Do you know we have a free Sound Judgment newsletter, full of guidance on how to make great creative choices in audio storytelling?Join subscribers from NPR, PRX,  PRPD, Stanford, Spotify and more.

Using Spatial Audio To Reduce Noise Pollution And Increase WellbeingJelmer Althuis is the founder and audio director of The Sphere of Sound, a studio based in Haroldinga in the Netherlands. His work focuses on creating spatial audio environments for virtual reality, ehealth, metaphors applications, audio tours, and art exhibitions. Jelmer has had a lifelong fascination with music technology and production, and has experience playing multiple instruments and composing music on computers. In 2013, after working as a system integrator and helping build studios, he was exposed to virtual reality. This sparked his interest in creating 3D audio with hat tracking capabilities. Since then, Jelmer has dedicated himself to immersive audio recording and production techniques, and in 2020 he founded The Sphere of Sound.The speaker is an audio producer specializing in spatial audio production for immersive experiences. In 2017, they joined the Fear Relax team as Audio Director, which uses the power of spatial audio to help people struggling with burnout or stress related symptoms. To fill their sound library, they go on the road and record with the Ambio Mic and a number of stereo sets, which are calibrated by Len Muskovich of Core Sound. To capture the best soundscapes, they look for places that are far away from roads, people, and airplanes. The speaker is passionate about creating soundscapes that help people feel telepresence and calm down.The conversation discussed the psychological and physical effects of sound, as well as the problem of noise pollution. It was noted that noise pollution can lead to health problems such as stress and cognitive function disorder, and can even have an effect on marine life. It was suggested that sound effects and natural, realistic environments created by sound designers and field recordists can provide a way for people to escape from the current reality and experience a moment of peace. These sound designers travel around the world to capture and preserve areas of silence, creating a form of telepresence and metaphorse environments with no noise pollution.Timestamps0:00:01"The Benefits of Taking a Daily Walk"0:01:13Yomar Alhas: Audio Director, Sound Designer, and Founder of The Sphere of Sound0:04:06"Exploring the Power of Spatial Audio for Immersive Experiences0:09:25"The Role of Sound in Stress Reduction and Noise Pollution"0:12:18Exploring the Benefits of Spatial Audio for Digital Worlds and WellbeingThank you for supporting Sonic Conservation by listening to Ambisonic Spaces.

I have this theory that music is usually about five years ahead of the rest of media in terms of its relationship to tech—whether that's new formats based on new tech, like vinyl to CDs; new business models like streaming; or simply being disrupted by new kinds of artists who use new forms of promotion like TikTok in unexpected ways. I've always thought that if you can wrap your head around what's happening to the music industry, you can pretty much see the future of TV or movies or the news or whatever it is, because the music industry just moves that fast. I was talking about this with my friend Charlie Harding, the co-host of Switched on Pop, and he said that he thinks the upcoming Taylor Swift Eras Tour is itself the end of an era in music — that the age of cheap streaming services is coming to an inevitable conclusion, and that something has to change in order for industry to sustain itself in the future.  So, in this episode, Charlie and I walk through a brief history of the music business—which, despite its ever-changing business models, is permanently trying to find something to sell you for $20 whether that's the music itself, all-access streaming, merch, and even NFTs—using Taylor Swift as a case study. We map her big moves against the business of music over time to try to see if this really is the end of an era. And maybe more importantly, to try and figure out if the music industry can sustain and support artists who are not Taylor Swift, because streaming, all by itself, definitely cannot.

Are you feeling stuck in life and don't know where to turn?“You know it's all of these moments that you it's when you don't think, and you don't over process that life tends to take you in the craziest and most amazing direction.”When Liam was younger, he was too scared to get on a bus to school in the morning due to anxiety and insecurity.

We conclude our special coverage of sound design for video games by interviewing the sound team at Gearbox Software, which famously created "over one billion guns" for its latest first-person shooter, Borderlands 3. So how exactly does a team design the sound for so many different guns? Turns out, it's actually kinda fun. "The godsend was the fact that we have a good set of field recording gear internally anyway and... we live in Texas. So, there's lots of people with lots of guns and lots of places, lots of space. So outside of the formal gun shoots that we did, which was really only one — formal gun shoot — we did a whole lot of side shoots here, locally, just us. And some of that was experimentation. Some of that was filling holes. We were learning as we were going. Where we needed more content, where we needed different types of content, different perspectives, different tales. Those kinds of things. And we would go out and do those shoots." — Mark Petty, Audio Director, Gearbox Software Thanks again to https://www.gearboxsoftware.com/ (Gearbox Software) for joining us this week! https://borderlands.com/ (Borderlands 3 is currently available on your favorite video game platforms).

As we continue to delve into the world of sound design for gaming, we have a special conversation to share with you today with one of the heavy hitters in this space — Rob Bridgett.  Rob is something of a visionary in their field and has a new book called, "Leading with Sound: Proactive Sound Practices in Video Game Development," where they share some of their fascinating insights and philosophy on crafting soundtracks for video games. "I talk about the topic of leading with sound through each one of those subject areas [music, sound, dialogue, and mix]. What are the opportunities for sound designers or composers or dialogue designers? What are the opportunities that they may be missing early in pre-production or production and try to deemphasize this idea of post-production. I know it's something that I've spent a lot of my time trying to create and defend in video games. And I still maintain that we 100% have to have post-production time and we have to be the last part of the baton race. I'm not arguing for that to go away. That's still critical, it feels like those are the gates of Valhalla for us, in audio. It's like once we arrive at post-production, we should already have all this other stuff figured out." — Rob Bridgett, Audio Director, "Shadow of the Tomb Raider" Our colleague Andy Vaughan discusses the book, as well as Rob's work on "Shadow of the Tomb Raider," their overall career, and some of the exciting new experimentation they're doing in partnership with McGill University.

Since so much groundbreaking sound work is being created in the world of gaming these days, we've decided to dedicate the next few episodes of this podcast to some of the superstars behind your favorite new video games. Continuing that ongoing coverage, today our colleague Alistair Hirst sits down with the sound team behind "Ghost of Tsushima," a giant open world Samurai action game set in feudal Japan. The team took painstaking steps to give players as authentic and immersive an experience as possible.  "We did an immense amount of research. Every single team did, because we're really having to learn this entire historical time period. It really happened, it really existed. And while taking creative liberties where necessary, we still wanted to do the time period and the content justice... It was just constant research and going out in the field and recording. We employed our team at Sony Japan studio... to go record throughout the main island of Japan, to capture a lot of ambience for us. And all of these things really helped inform how the game was going to sound." — Brad Meyer, Audio Director, "Ghost of Tsushima" Be sure to check out https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/ghost-of-tsushima/ ("Ghost of Tsushima," available now on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5).

In dieser Episode ist Audio Engineer Florian Füsslin zu Gast, der als Audio Director bei Ubisoft arbeitet. Mit ihm sprechen wir über die sehr komplexen und aufwendigen Audioproduktionen hinter Computerspielen. Anhand aktueller Games dokumentiert uns Florian, wie umfangreich die Audioproduktion alleine dadurch ist, dass jede Bewegung eines Charakters einen Sound braucht, egal wie schnell, egal auf welchem Untergrund er sich bewegt oder welche Gegenstände er einsetzt. Natürlich braucht jedes Gebiet eine Ambience und eine Musik, die sich an die Dramaturgie des Spiels anpasst und sich von Ort zu Ort auch ändert. Wir sprechen außerdem über die Rolle von Psychoakustik in Computerspielen und wie der User durch Audio beeinflusst werden kann. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Next stop, Slamdance y'all!  Our first interview during the film festival for filmmakers by filmmakers is with director Chelsea Christer and band member of The Matches,  Justin  San Souci. In this interview, they talk about their documentary Bleeding Audio, which follows the journey of a band out of Oakland, Ca. called  The Matches.  The  incredible footage they have of the band as they grow up in the music industry sets the stage for the journey they take as the industry turns to digital platforms almost overnight. The toll the digital age takes on a band coupled by having bad management is an interesting true story that Chelsea captures and tells so well through the lens of the band members, their parents, and their community.This was a fun interview and this doc. makes us yearn for live music shows - which can't come fast enough - after everyone gets the vaccine of course.  Thanks for listening!Bleeding Audio is currently playing at the Slamdance Film Festival, and will be making its way around the circuit at the San Luis Obispo & Oxford Film Festivals in March. Visit the Bleeding Audio website, then follow them on Instagram & Twitter to  get all the latest! --Be well, stay safe, Black Lives Matter, AAPI Lives Matter, and thank you for wearing a mask. --Buy us a cup of coffee!Subscribe to our channel on YouTube for behind the scenes footage!Rate and review us wherever you listen to podcasts!Visit our website! www.bitchtalkpodcast.comFollow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.Listen every other Thursday 9:30 - 10 am on BFF.FMPOWERED BY GO-TO Productions
