Hello World!


Hello Everyone! 
It's really hard to begin, but now this is my first step into sharing my knowledge with You guys!

Maybe I will start from introducing myself. My name is Krzysztof Kus and I am a sound designer and music composer from Kraków (Poland). I started my music and sound journey in 2005 when I loved sick trance beats. Yeah trance music turned me on! As a young kid I was dreaming about turning melodies in my head into real musical pieces. Tons of determination and motivation later I made my first hands up (it's a kind of trance music) track. It sounded awful as hell but I was proud! After many years I'm owner of a Synthphonia - epic music composing company, I'm also a game and movies sound designer, post-producer, even a voice actor! Look what sick trance music did to me! :D 

Everyone in his/her live will say to itself : if I want to increase my skills, I need to share my knowledge to other people. It's a duty. So... Welcome in my video blog series called : Speed of Sound : Sound Design for Beginners. I'm not an alpha and omega, but I want to help younger adepts of sound design technique to understand some rules, methods and ways to create satisfying sounds in games, movies and other media.

So... LET'S THE GAME BEGIN!!1!111!!!!!!!

FMOD tutorial - How to make modern Shooting sounds (and be stressed as hell in the same time!!)

Hi guys!! I knew this moment will come : my first FMOD tutorial :) I love this middleware for the easy and friendly interface, and tons of ideas that're coming through the hours of working:) So I came with idea to create FMOD event, where you can control few sounds and actions with only one parameter (knoob) and I'm a big fan of Battle Royale games, where my older (and more mature) friends - sound designers invented a tricky method to inform a player that his ammo is getting lower. They made it by change the sound of shooting bullets through the whole ammo magazine. This is my first time in front of camera... Guys I was stressed as F5#K!! :) I totally forgot what I was talkin' about! :D But everything for You ;) Catch!!

About music... SoS music chart 01 !!!1!oneone!!

Hi guys! March was a really busy month for me... so I didn't have much time to post here. April started a little bit (slightly :D ) lighter so my first thought was "hey Chris! move your ass and post on your blog you little bastard!". I know - Speed of Sound is about sound design in games, movies, media, but I think, good sound designers are also music lovers. So I decided to make a top 5 of my favourite (mostly played) music tracks for each month. I love my music folders, my music "routine" but I'm also open for a new music, so guys don't be surprised when you will see the same tracks few months in a row :D Let's start: No5 - Deadmau5 - Cat Thruster - I love Deadmau5 catchy, hypnotizing beats with analogue feeling. Cat Thruster starts with lovely lovely bassline. It reminds me the best 70s funky basslines. Really good mixed with kickdrum attacks listener with good energetic vibe. No4 - Lights & Motion - Pandora - Post rock is new...

Krzysztof Fails At Gamedev ?!

Hi Guys! I know, title of that post is so  heavy and depressing... meh... I'M KIDDIN'1!!1!! hahahaha lol xD Here's the thing: My friend show me a curious theory or a method? People are trying to focus on success, they're running for success... But failure is a painful thing... So why not to change a think? Maybe is it good to focus on failure? I know it sounds riddiculusly because failure bring us down, leaks us with motivation etc. But here's a funny thing. If You want something (in my case I want to be full time sound designer in a gamedev studio) you will face many fails, disappointment and many many more. But you will do your best every single time. Right? So this method focus on failures. I have to send 100 CVs till the end of 2018 and try to be 100 time rejected. Insane right? But you need to know I need to do my best in every single CV. I need to learn new methods, techniques to be (in my opinion) the best candidate for this job. So I try to be rejected...
