I have acquired a number of books to aid with my my research for this project:
Books:
- ‘Hearing Film’ Anahid Kassabian
- ‘The Foley Grail’ Vanessa Theme Ament
- ‘Audio Vision: Sound on Screen’ Michel Chion
- ‘Game Sound’ Keren Collins
My tutor David McSherry has also kindly lent me ‘The Complete Guide to Game Audio’ by Aaron Marks, which has so far been a very interesting read and includes case studies on some of the leading audio designers in the games industry.
Music:
I have looked at a number of composers from the Georgian era and have come across a number of composers who had a similar style to what I will be trying to achieve:
- Alexander Glazunov (1865 – 1936)
- Richard Strauss (1864 – 1949)
- Edward Elgar (1857 – 1934)
