About Me.
Bonjour! I'm Arthur, an Edinburgh-based Sound Designer and Game Developer.
My passion for game development sparked with titles like Professor Layton and Zelda on the Nintendo 3DS, inspiring me to delve into the world of video game creation. This journey led me to Abertay University, where I studied game design, gaining a deep understanding of various game development aspects and teamwork dynamics.
With a desire to specialize in game audio, I pursued a Sound Design Master at the University of Edinburgh. My summers were dedicated to working as an AV Technician at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and I occasionally dabbled in film and theatre projects.
In my free time, I'm a percussionist with the ECO and enjoy experimenting with new audio technology. I have a deep appreciation for nature, immersing myself not only visually but also through sound. My hobbies include bikepacking, hiking, and rock climbing, often paired with aerial photography and field recording.
Let's connect and explore the exciting world of sound and game development!
