Practical Game Sound Development Skills Using Unreal Engine for Employment at Game Companies: Intermediate and Advanced Courses Taught by a Current Sound Director

It's too heavy to study coding, and too much material to study all the blueprints. Let's learn the core functions first while creating a game character skill. After listening to the lecture, you will be able to implement the character skills you want on your own.

"The thirst that YouTube self-study can't quench—an Unreal Engine Authorized Instructor will satisfy it for you." You know Unreal Engine is great, but when you actually try to start, does it feel overwhelming? You follow countless tutorials, but it only helps in the moment—when you try to apply it, do you hesitate? As an Epic Games verified Authorized Instructor (UAI), I know better than anyone the trial and error that countless students go through. Building a foundation with fragmented information will eventually crumble. This course saves your time with **'the most accurate official standard'**. 💡 C++ is not necessary. Without complex coding, using only Blueprints, I'll help you develop **'real practical skills'** to create everything from games to metaverse and virtual production. Not just memorizing features, but growing into a **'Technical Creator'** who can solve any problem on their own—that's what I'll help you become.

🌿 Class Introduction This course teaches Unreal Engine's Procedural Content Generation (PCG) system with a practical, hands-on approach. You'll learn step-by-step techniques to automatically place complex terrain, roads, trees, lighting, and more, building an efficient environment creation pipeline without repetitive tasks. Rather than simply listing nodes, this course maximizes production speed through a structural approach that can be directly applied to your projects. 🚀 💡 3 Reasons Why This Class Is Special ❶ Production-Focused PCG Approach Focuses on **'project-centered design'** rather than feature listing. By integrating core systems like Landscape, Splines, and Level Instances, you'll build automated pipelines and experience production efficiency at least 3 times faster than manual work. ⚡ �② Complete Integration of PCG Graphs × Blueprints Exposes PCG parameters to Blueprints, creating a structure where artists and programmers can work together seamlessly. With system-oriented PCG design that controls density, meshes, and materials, you'll secure powerful scalability even in large-scale projects. 🧩 ❸ Automation, Efficiency, and Scalability From spline-based automatic placement of roads, streetlights, and fences to implementing material and vegetation changes based on terrain slope. Using 'Difference' and 'Distance' nodes, you'll complete real-world environment automation logic, such as automatically removing forests around roads. 🌲

Even non-majors, non-developers, and graphic artists can easily learn Unreal Engine. Grow as a Technical Artist through Unreal!

This lecture helps you learn about basic terms, concepts, and frameworks frequently heard when using Unreal Engine, and internalize them through practical exercises in simple game development using the engine editor.

Working as a game designer, there are often moments when you feel lost, not knowing how to plan sound or how to collaborate with the audio team. In particular, questions like "What makes good sound?", "Why does my game lack impact?", and "Why don't scene transitions/UI/combat/ambient sounds connect into a cohesive experience?" are among the most challenging areas for designers with limited experience. This course is designed for designers with these concerns, explaining the principles of sound design in a designer's language and helping you understand step-by-step, aligned with actual workflow, what role sound plays in games and how it should be designed. Focusing on core concepts and real-world examples that make up game sound— such as sound direction, impact feel, feedback, layering, ducking, and trigger design— this course explains things concretely and practically so that even beginner designers without audio expertise can easily understand and immediately apply them to their work. After taking this course, you won't be a designer who relies on vague intuition saying "just do it like this," but rather one who understands various game sound techniques and can proactively lead audio quality.

Even if you are new to Unreal Engine, taking this course will help you become familiar with it in just one day. It covers the basics thoroughly and only the necessary parts efficiently.

Game development is a complex field that goes beyond simple coding to encompass performance optimization, architecture design, collaboration, accessibility, and monetization. This course summarizes the sessions from GameDev Day 2025, a global event hosted by JetBrains, and captures the real-world challenges and solutions that professional developers face in the industry.
