About me

Hello there, I'm Jesse Jones!

My name's Jesse and I'm a Sound Designer from Ontario, Canada.

Some habits I've picked across the various years I have worked in the field are; Communicating with cross-functional teams to ensure the highest quality gameplay. Helping to mentor more junior Sound Designers and collaborating with Audio Programmers to develop better tools.

Some games that have had the biggest influence on my personal audio journey are: the Mass Effect franchise, Metroid series, and Silent Hill series, I have a penchant and affinity for both the horror and sci-fi genres. Creature sounds, sci-fi weapons, and thought-provoking beds of ambience are my favourite content to create. 

Most anticipated upcoming games are; Exodus, Mass Effect 5, GTA 6, and the Witcher 4

Some of my other hobbies and interests include hiking, road trips, astrophotography, collecting of retro games and vinyl records. It can be really nice to spend some time in the great outdoors and touch grass every once in a while. 



 

I'm now open for new opportunities!
Let's have a chat:

Key Projects

Portfolio

Total War Warhammer 40K

Creative Assembly

A new entry in the Total War real time strategy franchise set in the Warhammer 40K universe. 

Helped support sound design teams and area ownership of various parts of the project including content creation and implementation within Wwise. 

Reservoir

Arc Forge Games 

A narrative driven first person tactical shooter in a horror wrapper, set to the backdrop of rural BC, Canada. 

Created a suite of melee and firearm weapon SFX for Reservoir, as well as implementing FMOD and Unreal architecture for the alpha version of the project.

Apeiron

Exiled Republic

Role playing fantasy game in the vein of Dragon Age; navigating the adventure as your party of four each with different skills and abilities. 


Created all the FMOD and Unreal infastructure for the project, as well as SFX for character kits, spells, weapons, foley, footsteps, creatures and so on. 

The Anacrusis 

Stray Bombay

First person co-op shooter on a derelict spaceship in the vein of Left for Dead but with a twist; aliens rather than zombies. Quirky multiplayer fun on PC and Xbox.

Samurai Zero

Neo Interactive

Third person melee combat multiplayer game set in the sci-fi fantasy world of Edo. 

Created infrastructure and SFX in Wwise and Unreal Engine 4, including weapons, character kits, foley and so on, with a focus on tailoring a mix that would work well in the fast paced chaos of a 4v4 free-for-alls in multiplayer.

OrbusVR

Ad Alternum Games 

The world's 'first' VRMMORPG made for Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive. A fantasy game where you create your own adventure, fight monster and explore dunegons on a quest for greater power, it also featured VOIP proximity chat with other players.

Created all SFX as well as FMOD and Unity pipelines for the project. Content creation for everything from weather, ambience, creature and combat sounds that run the gamut.

Skill & Tools

Skills

Sound Design

Custom sound design and bespoke assets that match the aesthetic quality and ambition of your project.

Field Recording

Armed with some knowledge and good practices around field recording, we can build into a project a method of capturing original material that matches the project's vision.

Dialogue Editing 

I pride myself on making dialogue sound very good wherever possible, whether that means RXing out flaws, editing together the best takes, this is a process I like to ensure is done with exceptional care.

Audio Implementation

Creating unique pipelines with all conventional audio middleware or just with good design philosophy in mind is something I take great pride in.

Sound Libraries

As a result of my field recording excursions, I have recently published my first sound library on various digital vendor platforms; European Pistols & Sidearms. As of January 2025, I have started the new year off publishing Golden State Mustang.

More libraries to come in the future.

INDIE DEVELOPERS!

If you're interested in working together on a contractual basis, I can offer you one free consultancy where we can discuss the needs of your project. I highly recommend reading my Collaborate section, please click the link below. 

Hans Bakhshi, Arc Forge Games

"Jesse came into an existing project and was immediately able to provide a litany not only of detailed breakdowns, approaches, and expertise perfectly calibrated to our budget but also provided lots of passionate ideas and forward thinking about the project.

We ended up encountering a host of obstacles from other areas unrelated to Jesse’s work that impacted our timeline and despite these delays Jesse never had any issues pivoting or reworking his approach. 

His friendliness, expertise, understanding, and desire to deliver great work and reduce complications are all strong points that have made working with Jesse very reassuring. I look forward to our continued work together and would highly recommend him."

If there is one thing I believe in more than anything else, it has always been the concept of 'pay it forward'. 

For any up and coming, new or aspiring sound designers out there, I would be happy to hop on a call to impart some of my knowledge and share what I have discovered here in my tenure with you. 

This is something that I offer free of charge, but depending on how much of my time that it takes I may ask to be compensated for it at some point. Get in touch if you like to create or implement sounds! I would love to hear from you.
