Bio
Sean Flannigan
Bart is an entire audiovisual department in one person. He will create (and implement!) all the sounds and music for a game, capture exciting footage, cut trailers, manage the vocal talent, and work with the Design, Tech and Art departments to ensure a top-quality result - all on multiple projects at a time. Not only is he the hardest working member of any team, he's also the most passionate fan of every game he works on, bringing excellent, creative feedback to the table. On top of all of that, he's friendly, kind, and funny, which makes him an absolute delight to work with.

Bart simply excels at his craft, creatively - but as an audio programmer, it was Bart's ability, determination and character when faced with difficult problems that made working with him an absolute pleasure. Together, we solved many complex technical issues where Bart was consistently able to improve the quality of our solutions through clever, lateral thinking and hard work. We were thrown under the bus on many occasions, but with Bart - I never had any doubt that we would come to the best conclusion possible. Highly skilled and knowledgeable in working with game audio, and adept at working with others; Bart is deservedly one of the most skilled and trusted sound designers I have worked with in the games industry. I sincerely look forward to any opportunity to work with him in the future.
