28th July 2025

Have you ever wondered how the magical sounds in your favourite video games are created?

Curious what it’s like to design the noise for squashing a Goomba, hearing a dragon breathe fire, or summoning a Jinn from an ancient lamp?

Join a hands-on, free sound design workshop with Sam Thomas (he/him), Lead Sound Designer at Dlala Studios, whose work includes the BAFTA-nominated Disney Illusion Island.

He brings 11 years of experience in game sound design, tips for affordable tools, and a passion for the craft. Sam states, “Sound Design is the most fun discipline in video games,” and he’s excited to share his expertise with participants!

Date: Monday, 4th of August, 1-3 PM
Location: The Bank Arts Centre, Eye
Ticket: FREE – limited spaces available. Reserve your spot via Eventbrite.

What to expect:

• A fun and interactive exploration of sound design for games, led by an industry professional with over a decade of experience
• Breaking down a real game scene to discover the process of creating and adding sounds
• Live demonstrations of making sounds from everyday objects and recording new sounds during the session
• Practical advice on creating larger-than-life effects and immersive player experiences
