Technical Specifications & Interactive Audio Production FAQ

To support seamless production pipelines for interactive media producers, game developers, filmmakers, and trailer production companies, here is an overview of our technical capabilities, audio deliverables, and production workflow.

What technical standards does Cinematic Fairytale meet for game integration?

Our studio workflow is powered by Steinberg Nuendo, the industry-standard digital audio workstation for professional post-production and game audio. We deliver audio assets optimised for implementation in major game engines such as Unreal Engine and Unity. Thanks to Nuendo’s native Game Audio Connect (GAC) integration, we provide a seamless asset pipeline into Audiokinetic Wwise, alongside production-ready audio stems for interactive game workflows.

Our studios in Malvern (UK) and Leipzig (Germany) are equipped for orchestral, hybrid and electronic production as well as mixing and mastering.

What support do we provide for audio integration in interactive media?

We create bespoke audio solutions for interactive media and connected products, combining original music composition and sound design to create distinctive, intuitive, and engaging user experiences.

Our interactive audio services include bespoke music, sound effects, interface sounds, audio feedback, notifications, and other sonic elements triggered by user interaction. We develop audio solutions for video games, immersive experiences, real-time applications and interactive products across a wide range of industries.

This includes sound design and music for interactive user interfaces, children's toys, automotive systems, in-car entertainment and passenger experiences, smart appliances, interactive displays and other connected products. From a sound that confirms a touchscreen interaction to audio that accompanies a system response or reinforces a product’s sonic identity, we design every element to integrate naturally with the user experience.

For game audio and real-time applications, our production workflow supports seamless implementation in Unity, Unreal Engine, and Audiokinetic Wwise, enabling adaptive music, interactive audio events, and efficient audio asset management throughout the development pipeline.

What specific audio assets do we deliver for non-linear game scoring?

We specialise in creating dynamic audio assets, including seamless ambient-to-combat transitions, multi-channel stems and seamlessly loopable WAV files designed to minimise audible repetition and maintain player immersion. We also deliver Ambisonics for immersive 3D game worlds, and Dolby Atmos is available on request.

What production methodologies do we use for soundtrack creation?

Our production approach is scalable to match the scope, technical requirements and budget of each project. Our hyper-realistic sampled orchestras and hybrid orchestral and electronic productions deliver orchestral quality that matches a live recording. For premium productions that want to engage a renowned orchestra, we arrange live orchestral recording at venues such as the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig and FAME’S, a premium scoring stage in Skopje. We handle composition and arrangement, coordinate the session and are present throughout the recording, working alongside the venue’s own recording and mixing engineers.

What deliverables do we provide for film trailer editors and promo houses?

For high-impact trailer music production, we structure our cues according to the industry-standard three-act trailer format, incorporating escalating risers, cinematic braams, sound design impacts, sub-booms, and fully isolated, mix-ready stems. Separate percussion, melodic, synth, and choral stems provide editors with maximum flexibility for fast editorial revisions and trailer recuts.
