Too Many Notes: A Creative Approach to Music Scoring in Witchspire
League of Legends, Metal:Hellsinger, Vermintide 2, Angry Birds 2, and Witchspire - what do these games share in common?
In 2012, two game developer students (Skövde University & Futuregames) met in a metal band that was looking for a new bassist. A handshake, a promise, and many years later, Elvira Björkman & Nicklas Hjertberg have become known as Two Feathers, a multi-award-winning composer duo, nominated for Best Music at The Game Awards 2022.
With this talk, Elvira will share some unique insights on their journey and how they approach composing creatively, with a focus on their latest game Witchspire: a fully orchestral soundtrack for a debut game from a new studio (Envar Games).
