Myles Smith Fortnite Concert

​Sony Immersive Music Studios (SIMS) is a group within Sony Music focused on "developing immersive music experiences through the power of creativity and technology”. The team works with all of the Sony Music labels to create engaging experiences for their fans.
 

The Myles Smith Fortnite Concert brings to life three of his songs, Stargazing, Wait For You, and Whisper, through both his mo-cap performances and engaging gameplay staged in immersive environments. The concert was played by hundreds of thousands of Fortnite users.

​

This concert was SIMS' first time building a Fortnite Concert, let alone an experience of this scale on the platform. As the sole designer, I took the lead on creative development for the concert, working across departments to solidify a creative direction that was achievable within our short timeline. I also worked with the artist to ensure that the experience was true to his creative vision.
 

Besides focusing on level design, I worked hands-on in engine to design, build, and maintain core gameplay features. I began with prototypes, refined and incorporated those into level blockouts, and worked with art to develop environments that complimented the gameplay we were building.
