Living entrepreneurially is about working smarter and living better. A freelance audio engineer, Oscar Romero spent time developing a sonically trained ear to chase his call, one that doesn’t involve climbing the corporate ladder instead, build a pathway toward success, and insure that ordinary sound waves meet the extraordinary.
I've logged hundred of hours doing everything related to the sound editing, ADR, mixing, mastering, EQ, compression, sound design, backgrounds, foley, and even organize sound libraries. I'm also very familiar with any DAW's such as Pro tools, Ableton, Logic, or just about anything that can be beneficial to the final product. I've specifically been hired to work on dialogue, and sound design for feature films and have provided quality sound for my clients and now that you know a little bit of me; I know that I could be a valuable asset to help you and bring to the table all of the skills that are required.
