The SIms 4

SIMS 4 Sound Design Reel

Compilation of sound design work from The Sims 4; some odds and ends! Features work from:

The Sims 4 GP07: Strangerville

The Sims 4 EP07: Island Living

The Sims 4 EP10: Snowy Escape

Specters

Specter sound design in The Sims 4 SP18: Paranormal

I experimented with different synth and theremin layers to produce a ghostly movement sound for the specters that haunt the Sims. Worked with Tsugi’s GameSynth to create additional movement layers on the bigger actions

Hiking Points of Interest

Snippets of the ambient sound design for sightseeing spots in The Sims 4 EP10: Snowy Escape

I researched Japanese Temples and Shrine traditions to create culturally accurate bell SFX

Sports Arena

Snippets of the ambient sound design for a sports arena location in The Sims 4 EP08: Discover University

I scripted new dialogue and SFX to simulate the events happening inside the arena, in this instance a soccer game, an esports match, and a college graduation.

Haunted House SFX

Snippets of the Haunted House sound design The Sims 4 SP18: Paranormal

This was my first pack as an audio lead so I really wanted to play up the horror during normal gameplay. Here are some classic horror SFX you and your Sim can experience in-game

Cauldron

Potion making sound design for the cauldron object in The Sims 4 GP08: Realm of Magic

I used a mixture of water, oil, and cornstarch to make the stirring and sloshing sounds of the liquid in the cauldron.

GP07: Strangerville

Official Reveal trailer for The Sims 4 GP08: Strangerville. My contributions include dialog editing, ambience/SFX editing and music editing.

The audio team was asked to emulate the style and tone of movie trailer from Super 8
