История

Trabajar el sonido es mi vocación principal, con la cual disfruto y me permite desarrollarme, tanto personal como profesionalmente. Trabajo de forma regular para varios clientes, siempre de forma independiente, sumándome a proyectos que me parecen interesantes, que me reporten conocimiento y que puedan enriquecer mi trabajo, independientemente del presupuesto. Nací en Bilbao en 1973. Mis comienzos fueron en el mundo de la música; forme parte de varios grupos, y poco a poco comencé a interesarme por la grabación, de forma autodidacta. Tras 10 años de estar continuamente aprendiendo, por mi cuenta, realizando trabajos ocasionales de sonido —tanto en estudios de grabaciones musicales como en espectáculos de artes escénicas— pase a estudiar oficialmente sonido en la Escuela de Cine y Vídeo de Andoain (Gipuzkoa). También fueron muy importantes mis estudios en electricidad y electrónica, con los que adquirí conocimientos complementarios muy valiosos. Desde entonces llevo dedicándome profesionalmente al sonido, preferentemente en el área audiovisual, y sobre tod, en sonido para cine. He tenido la ocasión de viajar y trabajar en diferentes países como: Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, Pakistan, Etiopia, Hungria… También me interesa la docencia. He impulsado (ayudado a que se generen) e impartido (allí donde me lo han solicitado) clases de sonido, en diferentes escuelas, universidades y comunidades indígenas; en lugares donde haya sido viable poder transmitir conocimientos de sonido, para poder avanzar y contribuir al lenguaje audiovisual. Y, ocasionalmente, intento no desconectar del mundo musical e intento disfrutar también de grabaciones musicales. Actualmente resido a caballo entre Venezuela y Bilbao; trabajo en ambos lados del «charco», sumándome a cualquier proyecto donde me soliciten. Nos vemos pronto.

Film, the Living Record of our Memory

The documentary is a tribute to all these professionals and their important work.
