Sound Designer looking for UE5 project(s) to learn/practice. [Graduate Thesis]

Hi,

I am a Sound Designer and have been working on the Film and Television side of things for many years now. I’m new to the game audio world and still developing my understanding of UE5 and Wwise. A huge problem i’ve run into is the lack of projects available to practice with / do sound for.

I’m pursuing my masters degree in Sound Design and have my thesis project coming up. I hope to focus my thesis on game audio, by designing and implementing sound onto a game project with UE5/Wwise.

Are there any developers that have any ue5 projects they’d like me to do sound for? Or have any old projects laying around that I could use for my thesis? My current experience consists of environmental sounds and SFX assigned to animations/blueprint events, I have yet to work on any advanced procedural systems but am excited to dip my toes into that kind of work.

If there is anyone that has a project I can work on, or has any pointers for me to find a project, Please let me know!

Thanks!
Vrana
