IGDC 2023 | Building a Game Audio Mindset
a guide for scalable audio implementation
In line with my vision of building an ecosystem for games & interactive audio mindset in India (via initiatives such as gameaudio.in), I spoke at the India Game Developer Conference (IGDC 2023) on the very same topic. The target audience for the talk is developers, publishers, producers and key people from the industry whose understanding of audio play a major role in how good the sonic experience of the games created in India will be. And the topics include action items that you as a game creator can take to enhance the gameplay experiences.

Access Show NotesVoice & Text Sync – The Audio Programmer
I've learnt so much from Joshua and sharing screen with him was an amazing experience. In this video I talked about building tools with a product mindset, to solve problems that can help scale projects easily. I presented an example of voice and text sync along with understanding the marker structures of different DAWs, to see how a feature as quick as this can bring game designers, writers, developers and the audio department on the same page.
The app can create voice-synced marker files compatible with iZotope RX which can then be used to automate read-along animations in Unity.
I shared the screen with Joshua Hodge & Nick Culbertson (Moby Pixel) to share one of my projects to nudge more people to explore Machine Learning.
Access Meetup on TAPContributed to GameAudioLearning.com
As part of my attempt to make Game Audio more accessible, I briefly collaborated with Greg Lester, creator of Game Audio Learning, to help beginners (& professionals from linear media) from around the world to take their first steps. In case some of them had already started their journey but didn't continue for some reason, we helped them nudge themselves into building the momentum.
A collection of articles & posts that I share on the web are available here.
