Step into the world of game audio with Victor Hime, Founder and Audio Director at Flutu, in this practical masterclass on how sound, voice, and music work inside video games, shaping emotion and player experience, on July 1st, from 2 PM to 4 PM at Alfaisal University in Riyadh. Designed for developers passionate about video games, this session introduces the foundations of audio for games. Through trailers, real case examples, live demonstrations, and accessible workflows, participants will see how raw sound ideas become systems that support gameplay, feedback, identity, and immersion. Together we will explore the role of sound design in gameplay, the use of voice to create characters and creatures, and how audio becomes interactive inside modern game production. The session will also show how simple recordings can be transformed into monster voices, robotic effects, stylized sound design, and responsive audio ideas. Participants will receive selected resources, free tool recommendations, sample materials, and practical references to continue exploring after the masterclass.
