Cedric Hommel is a German sound designer, sound engineer, and foley artist who has worked on countless computer games, movies, animations, multimedia projects, and game trailers. His library consists of various naturally recorded and edited field recordings, as well as synthetically created sounds transformed through extensive effect chains and sound layering. Cedric's credits include the upcoming feature computer game "Das Schwarze Auge - Demonicon," various game trailers on Steam and German TV, and commercials for Audi, AMC, and Bayer.
Cedric Hommel's sounds are either created synthetically, or recorded analogue, by using different and sometimes experimental microphone setups, such as combining stereo recordings with contact microphones and hydrophones or binaural recordings. His additional credits include movies such as "In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale," "Badesalz - Das Baby mit dem Goldzahn," and "The Last Night of Baby Gun."
