I’m Sebastián Orueta Murillo, a Sound Designer specializing in sound design, mixing, and postproduction for narrative film, documentary, and video art — currently completing a Master’s in Sound for Film at ESCAC (Barcelona). My sound design on “The Dragon Letter” (dir. Stanzin Jigmet) won the 53rd Student Academy Award in the Narrative category, and my work has premiered at Cinequest, the Málaga Film Festival, SANFIC, and CurtasVila do Conde, plus a video installation at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Santiago. I’ve built soundscapes to picture across shorts, features, TV series (Movistar’s “Los Prisioneros”), video art, and music production — handling everything from Foley and ambience to final mix. A background in Visual Arts (BA, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile) shapes how I work: sound as a precise storytelling tool, matched tightly to on-screen action, with consistent quality even across high volumes of material. Alongside my film sound work, I compose, produce, and mix music for releases with Poxi Records and other artists, and I’ve served as a live sound engineer for their concerts. I enjoy bridging technical precision with creative experimentation—whether working in post-production for narrative projects, supporting production with field audio, or collaborating across audiovisual and art-focused environments. Proficient in Pro Tools, Ableton Live, iZotope, Dolby Atmos, and Wwise, with access to professional sound libraries and my own field recordings. Portfolio: _Website not available.
