Jeremiah Black - Sound design.
These are a few clips from a supplemental DVD for the video game Splinter Cell: Double Agent. It's from an interview with a declassified special forces "black ops" agent who contributed his personal experiences to the game's character and story. I did the sound design for all the action-type coverage in the interview.
In a lot of interviews, people tend to simply put some music behind the speaker. I always felt that was lazy and simply flattens the speaker's emotional impact. Instead, I think that taking the time to do intricate sound design and layer atmospheres, tones, and effects creates a much richer and more dynamic mood. I'm really just putting this online because it was a lot of fun to do and illustrates this point.
