Hi, my name is Rodrigo Castilla, from São Paulo, son of a Peruvian father and a Brazilian mother. Since I was a teenager, I've always focused on developing a career in cinema. I've always loved films for their music, but I never thought I'd be a professional film composer. Throughout my four years at FAAP (Fundação Armando Álvares Penteado) studying cinema, I discovered that my passion in cinema is in the area of sound, more specifically in the area of sound post-production, especially as a sound designer, for sound mixing and editing. In December 2024, I will receive my Bachelor’s degree in Cinema Studies from FAAP. In parallel to FAAP I have obtained a Sound Designer diploma from EBAC (Escola Britânica de Artes Criativas e Tecnologia). At FAAP I have 5 finished short films in my portfolio where I was responsible for all the sound in the films and I'm currently in the post-production phase of two extracurricular films, one of which was made by Brazil’s Cinema Paulo Gustavo Law. To complement my training, I did a 6-month internship at TRINTADEZESSETE, where I had the opportunity to learn more about the work dynamics of an audiovisual production company.
I always look for the best references, so I design the sound to create something new and authentic that meets the needs of the film. I carry out various tests to see what fits best so that the sound for the film in question achieves its full potential.
I am constantly integrating Audio Artificial Intelligence tools to further improve my work and to be able to keep up to date with new developments and their possibilities. I currently actively use two powerful AI tools, Izotope RX and Krotos Studio.
