I’m thrilled to launch the first vlog in my new series where I take you behind the scenes of composing the soundtrack for Paizo’s legendary Adventure Path, Rise of the Runelords!

In these behind-the-scenes videos, you’ll get a glimpse into my creative process and the concept behind the music. From researching the rich lore of the Adventure Path, taking extensive notes, and crafting the themes, to writing the songs, recording with talented live musicians, and producing the final soundtrack—I’ll share it all with you!

For the broader case-study side of this process, I also keep a Worldbuilding Music hub with projects where the score is built around lore, characters, places, and story structure.

🌍 About Paizo and Rise of the Runelords Paizo is renowned for creating immersive and expansive tabletop role-playing experiences.
