ALEX AYALA
TECHNICAL SOUND DESIGNER
ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Alex Ayala, a Technical Sound Designer who specializes in sound design and implementation for videogames.
​
I always loved music and sound in general, and since I remember always was captivated by how sound can change the experience of any visual media.
​
I started studying music theory and performance, after that I went for a degree in music production and at the end decided to specialize in sound design for visual media.
​
What I love the most of working on audio for videogames is helping the project to achieve a more immersive experience and help to tell a story through sound.
