1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself?
Hello! My name is Jake I'm 22 and a recent college grad. I'm a composer and want to get into making music for games. I have a lot of experience composing hybrid-orchestral music for many short films and have worked on one game before, but would love to work more on the music for some of your games!
2. Did you participate in the last jam we held? If so, what do you plan on doing better this time? If not, what's your reason for joining?
I did not, this would be my first game jam.
3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own?
I take heavy musical inspiration from the Elder Scrolls games, especially Skyrim. Recently, the 2018 God of War soundtrack has been one of my favorites along with Doom: Eternal.
4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine?
I took an entire graduate-level class on composing music for video games where we learned techniques and skills for composing for games as well as learning how to implement the music via Wwise.
5. Tell us about something you're passionate about!
I'm really passionate about telling stories through music and being able to enhance a story and emotions of a game/film through original music.
6. What are your goals for this game jam?
I want to create a great soundtrack for a game that's implemented smoothly and effectively!
