Ken Felton

Title

Audio Director and Sound Designer at Spatial

Bio

I'm a veteran audio director with experience in the gaming, film/TV, and XR industries. I enjoy working on high profile projects or early prototypes. My background in sound design, dialog production, music direction, multi-channel mixing, and project management adds value to the project as an individual contributor or as a manager. I am proficient in software development environments such as Unreal and Unity. I am highly skilled in Avid ProTools, Reaper, WaveLab, iZOTOPE, and other audio software tools on the Mac and PC.

I specialize in middleware audio tools such as Wwise|FMOD. I understand multi-channel audio formats, transmission methods, mixing, and microphone recording techniques. I'm passionate about collaborating with development team members to define an audio creative direction that aesthetically supports the project and pushes creative boundaries.

I excel at building high-performance audio teams to fit the project needs and help our dev team be successful. I manage my crew with frequent check-ins, clear direction, and a supportive style. I'm at my best when using my leadership and interpersonal skills to collaborate with studio peers and upper management. I am a confident, team player that delivers top-quality audio and milestone results while navigating high-pressure environments and tight deadlines. I'm comfortable working in the Agile software development methodology and I'm a certified ScrumMaster.

Audio Technical Specialties: Avid ProTools, Dolby Atmos mixing, Wwise|FMOD, field recording techniques, multi-channel/spatial audio formats. P.M. tools such as Jira, Asana, and DevTrack.
