About Me.
Bonjour! I’m Arthur, an Edinburgh-based Sound Designer and Game Developer with a knack for turning sound into stories.
My journey started with Professor Layton, and Zelda on my Nintendo 3DS, sparking a love for game creation that led me to Abertay University. There, I learned to bring ideas to life and survive game jams fueled by coffee, surrounding talents and stubborn determination. Fast forward to today, I’ve earned a Master’s in Sound Design from the University of Edinburgh, worked as an AV Technician at the Fringe Festival, and dabbled in film and theatre projects.
When not crafting soundscapes, I’m out hiking, bikepacking, or climbing rocks, always with a field recorder in hand of course.
Oh, and I play percussion with the ECO, because who doesn’t love hitting things rhythmically from time to time?
Let’s connect, explore the exciting world of sound and game development, making something awesome!
