DAILY RECORDING THREAD RULES:

1) i might miss a day every now and again and that's ok.

2) you can mute the thread at any time if you think it's annoying. i understand and support your decision.

3) you can stop the thread completely by offering me full time game audio employment.

game audio internships are exceedingly rare, so you're gonna want to jump on this one (assuming you're a student, that is)

as a lapsed Episcopalian, i think it's good for the Episcopalians to do memes, and i think they should do *more* memes

Daily Recording, Day 10: today i recorded pick ups and put downs for this empty tea kettle on a stove.

Emily E. Meo @emilyemeo.bsky.social · 19h

this event is easily in the top five stupidest things that have ever happened to me

Emily E. Meo @emilyemeo.bsky.social · 19h

so I strolled into my 7pm showing of 100 Meters at 7:05, expecting to have missed a couple of shitty car commercials at minimum. but alas, dear reader: there had been no commercials. I was 5 minutes late to the actual movie itself.

in the past five years, I've noticed that when I see a movie in a regular non-alamo chain movie theater, I am subjected to at least 20 minutes of commercials before even the trailers start. I don't like this, and I don't respect it.

I've done a poor job of remembering to let folks know about this, but I'll be at GameSoundCon this year! I haven't hung out with non-local game audio folks since pre-pandemic, so I'm excited to get back out there.

I'll be flying in Monday around 2 and leaving Thursday around 5, so in theory I'll have extra time for hangs and/or meetings if anyone would be interested in either of those things

Emily E. Meo @emilyemeo.bsky.social · 2d

not only will I be attending GameSoundCon, I'll also be speaking! I'll be one of the panelists at Multiclassing: Rise of the Audio Generalist alongside @alavenmusic.bsky.social, @otortoisesound.bsky.social, and @jordanguerette.bsky.social. hope to see some of y'all there?

tonight's "gamer fruit" is pears, enjoyed with Kirby and the Forgotten World

it's a phone pic of a Switch 2 in handheld mode, showing Kirby and the Forgotten World. next to it is a small bowl of pear slices.

it doesn't help that i've already recorded a good deal of the things i currently own. gotta get creative.

Emily E. Meo @emilyemeo.bsky.social · 2d

so that's one week of Daily Recording done. i'm still getting my groove back little by little. the recording, editing, naming, and rendering is quick and easy, but it takes me longer to decide what to record, and i'm more discerning about what i record than i was before.

Daily Recording, Day 7: today i recorded the big cartoon-y pops off this plastic syringe that Maff uses for water filtration when he's out camping.

panel done! i'm so glad to see an event like this popping off outside of Austin. i feel like PAX South was the go-to event for bringing gamedevs from all over Texas together, and we gotta work harder to fill the gap with events like this now that it's gone

my favorite thing about driving on I-35 is every other driver getting super mad at me for only going 5 miles over the speed limit instead of 20 miles over the speed limit

Daily Recording, Day 6: today i recorded this vibrating cat toy and i am haunted by the sudden realization that i don't actually know what kind of animal it's trying to imitate

what a cool game. i'm so glad i spent the time with it.

it's a phone pic of my score screen at the end of my Metal Gear Solid playthrough. it says my code name is Elephant and my special item is Bandana. i have no idea what that means
