How much time was spend on composing and that part of a game versus the other duties as Audio Director. How involved are you as Audio Director in the day to day work of making sounds for video games?

Composing was probably the least time consuming thing I did. Early in my game career I was 100% involved in creating sounds.

Making of videos always show audio folks just making and recording all sorts of crazy sounds to combine into sound effects. Do you provide lots of direction for stuff like that, or just give a sign off on it?

Used to provide lots of direction (if I wasn't doing it myself) and later with a bigger team just gave direction and approval.

I seem to recall you saying that you like working in a studio with a smaller workforce. How much extra work does that entail for you? Do you now have to work on anything you wouldn't have done before?

Well, I'm cutting footstep sounds again plus sometimes washing the dirty dishes in the sink. Love it!

How do you feel about Taylor Swift? (:

I love Taylor Swift
