Not For Broadcast  (sound recording, sound engineering & sound design)

 

Since the start of the pandemic, alongside my regular teaching commitments, I've been working freelance for NotGames, a computer game development team based in Surrey, on a project called Not For Broadcast. I have been providing a range of services including  location sound recording, studio engineering, foley creation, and  sound design, and I'm really pleased to announce that the game has now  left early access and been fully released. The response has been incredible, including great reviews and dev interviews on the media giant website, ScreenRant, and the game now holds the Guinness World  Record for the "Most Full Motion Video in a videogame" clocking-in at a massive 42 hours and 57 minutes.

Several of my students assisted with voice acting duties, providing me with a superb foley soundtrack for one scene featured in the game, and they each experienced their first professional paid acting gig.

I'm really proud of the work produced by the NotGames team and my contribution to this release, and I'm looking forward greatly to what comes next.

Not For Broadcast is a darkly comedic game of televised chaos that lets you pick what you want to see on TV, no matter what anybody else wants. Egotistical celebrities, dishonest politicians, and strange sponsors clash on the airwaves. You’re here to ensure that the show goes on uninterrupted.

Cut between multiple camera feeds, tweak the headlines, bleep the foul language, all with just moments to spare on a live broadcast! Whether you toe the party line or stir up a scandal is your choice, so long as you can hold the audience’s fickle attention.

The game is intended for a mature audience and is published by Tinybuild.

EMF  (sound design)
E.M.F. is a retro-styled puzzle game where the player is an electron having to navigate their way around circuit board levels that varying from really basic to convincingly complex.
Working closely to the tinyhouse brief, Honney-Bayes Productions have now provided a carefully designed range of unique audio sound effects to accompany the E.M.F animated game components. I created a large quantity of the sounds using my Parker guitar, a really filthy fuzz pedal and a handful of audio plugin effects!
The audio sampler (below) includes a selection of the sound effects created. It should at least give an approximate idea of what the game will sound like.

 

Another Piece Of Cake  (an ongoing composition project)
Another Piece Of Cake is the name given to an ongoing studio-based project that I've been working on with my longtime client and friend, Roy Carter. The music below is a selection of the compositions we have created together during our one hour studio sessions every Thursday morning over the last few years.

Customer Testimonials
 
“Honney-Bayes Productions always provide excellent results, imaginative and on time, the work never disappoints.”   -   J Orbaum, creative director, NotGames

“I asked Honney-Bayes productions to help me with what I thought was going to be a boring, time consuming job creating sound-bite clips for my website. I spoke to Nigel and his instant understanding of the issue and subsequent handling of the job means I will NEVER go anywhere else again for my audio needs. The job was completed within my expected timescale, the work was done correctly, all 400 plus clips, and the price was reassuringly within budget. If you’re looking for an audio production company, which provides great quality work, at affordable, yet professional pricing, Honney-Bayes Productions. Accept no substitute.”   -   S Morrison, managing director, Marketing Potential (Guildford)
