Ubisoft Paris/Bordeaux
Sound Designer : Worked on 2 unannounced projects
For my second master year I did my internship at Ubisoft Paris and then I had a contract as a sound designer. I worked during 12 month on a unannounced project in the Paris Studio. During this project I had the chance to experiment a lot of things using Wwise, Reaper, and Nuendo to design sounds and integrate them in a In-House Engine. I also used Unity and Unreal to do few prototypes. The international size of Ubisoft allowed me to work with other studios all around the world.
Now I am working at Ubisoft Bordeaux on an other unannounced project.
