Welcome to the Game Audio Institute!
The Game Audio Institute has been educating students and teachers on the fundamentals of interactive audio for over a decade. We have found that the best way to learn about game audio is inside the game itself. Our classroom tested courses and detailed game lessons get right to the heart of the special nature of adaptive media, with many of our students going on to work for some of the world’s top game companies.

Ashley HalletSolutions Specialist at PlayStation I had the opportunity of attending Steve Horowitz and Scott Looney’s Game Audio Workshop at San Francisco State University this summer.

Michael Kim(Composer/Sound Designer) I was very fortunate in attending the Game Audio Summer Intensive workshop at SFSU (2018) and found it tremendously informative, I traveled all the way from Texas! I gained valuable insight, into what I would have to learn and prepare in order to be successful in this career. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone who'd like to have a better understanding of game audio.
Jerome RossenCEO - Freshmade Music Steve and Scott do a really great job of laying out the foundations of video game audio. Don't miss the tutorials they have provided; this is one of the few places I’ve found that offers hands-on, step-by-step instructions on how to implement your audio into actual game levels.
