Nicholas K. Email and Phone Number
Hi there! My name is Nicholas Karr. I’m an avid gamer, an ambitious musician, a technology admirer, and a language learner. After several years of career soul-searching, I’ve discovered a fulfilling career (or rather industry) that allows me to combine all of my passions whilst providing prosperous opportunities. That is becoming a Sound Designer in the Video Game Industry. As previously mentioned in my headline, I’m an Audio Production student — amongst many other things — who’s passionate about entering the industry. As a side note, I’m excited to share that I have several, personal projects that showcase my technological and musical abilities. These can be found on my YouTube channel (link provided) and in the project section of my LinkedIn profile. If you'd like to connect or learn more about me, feel free to reach out. I’d be happy to help!Growing up, I’ve always played video games. It was a form of connection I had with my eight siblings and an easy way to build friendships; regardless of how far away they were. I started with the classic “flash games,” then moved to PlayStation consoles, then Steam, and now the Nintendo Switch. Along the way, I’ve played amazing games that ranged from First-Person Shooters, to Open Worlds, Battle Royals, RPGs, and a pinch of everything else. Because of video games, I’ve made so many memorable experiences and found a hobby that I could possibly turn into a fulfilling career; all while incorporating sound, music, and video games.With multiple years of musical experience, I have grown comfortable with Music Theory and applying it to various compositions and making formal analyses of musical pieces. Thus far, I’ve worked with Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Musescore 3 & 4, and Finale. I’ve also taken multiple Theory, Ear Training, Digital Music, Piano, and Vocal courses that have all contributed to my overall musicianship. To highlight, I recently took a Game Audio course that incorporated my musical and sound abilities. As a result, it has furthered my knowledge in the field of video games and has given me perspective to the different elements within it.With all of this in mind, my skills, knowledge, and passion would make me a great asset to any company that is open to providing opportunities.Thank you for reading!Portfolio and Musical Work: https://www.youtube.com/@nicholas19karr
