With Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim a little over a week away, most gamers are probably eager just to play it, never mind enjoying the music and sound design. When it comes to a game as drool-inducing as this one, though, you take what you can get. In this case, what you can get is a behind-the-scenes look at the process of creating music, sound, and voice acting for this massive RPG.

The video below was included as part of a full-blown multimedia blog post on the Elder Scrolls official site titled "Making a Dragon Sandwich." The video (along with the podcast, the text of the blog post, and a photo gallery) show off all the hard work that goes into creating the noise you'll be hearing for hundreds of hours in Skyrim. It's pretty impressive stuff, so give it a watch and then check out the blog post.
