sound + music for video games, film, & more
SPOTLIGHT:
Section 9 is an action/adventure sci-fi game in development by Section 9 Interactive, an independent game development. The studio posted an update of clips as a series of GIF’s of mechanical monsters, guns, creatures, with platforming and sci-fi lasers and tools. I created all the audio in this linear redesign using synthesis (Serum) for lasers, and pick ups. Foley and mechanical sources from my own sound libraries.
Returnal Teleport sound design made by processing RAW rock recordings!

sarah sherlock
MSc Sound + Music for Interactive Games, BA Music Production
Sound designer for games, freelance composer & field recordist. Currently working remotely from my home studio in Dublin, Ireland with intention to relocate to the UK.
Coming Soon! I recently finished designing additional audio for upcoming cyberpunk narrative game Neuroet: Mendax Proxy. You are an artificial intelligence tasked with managing a city-wide augmented reality network known as the “NeuroNet”. Embark on a journey of self-discovery as you learn what it means to be human in a world losing itself to technology. My role was to create audio assets for the in game narrative cards on 11 of the game locations. This included bringing the characters and environment to life with sound which reflected the actions, characters and aesthetic of the cyberpunk art style.
Coming late Summer 2021 to PC, mobile and nintendo switch.Hover/click the image on the left to add to your wishlist on steam!
