Designing Rarities in Pacific Drive

Millie's talk is a deep dive into the design process behind the hazards of Pacific Drive, and how everything is built from layers of field recordings and experimentation. She explains how she combined recordings of jungle debris, puddles and mud, manipulated vocal layers and other organic textures to give creatures a haunting, embodied presence that really feel alive. The talk is all about turning ordinary recordings into otherworldly beings, highlighting the creativity that goes into crafting sounds that players feel as much as hear.
