About

I’m Michele Gualano, a composer, music producer, and sound designer who writes music for picture and takes it through every step of sound design, mixing, and mastering. As a saxophonist trained from an early age, I often bring an orchestral mindset to my work—carrying my instrument with me and shaping sound with a musician’s ear.

Over the past years I’ve created original scores for short films delivered in intense timeframes (including a 48-hour project), and I’ve also worked on dubbing and production roles in studios and media production environments. I enjoy collaborating with directors, artists, and production teams, composing for campaigns and brand films, and delivering live performances that connect the score directly to the visual and emotional world of the project.
