Elevate your audio experience

 My name is Christopher Marroquin, and I graduated from Columbia College Chicago with a bachelor’s degree in Audio Arts: Sound Design and Post Production.  

  My passion for music and audio began early, as I grew up watching a variety of movies and participating in school music programs like symphonic and marching band. I was captivated by how television and cinema used music scores and sound cues to bring stories to life. From that moment, I knew I wanted to work in the sound industry. When choosing a college, I sought a program that would teach me to work and edit at a professional level, which led me to Columbia. During my time there, I had the opportunity to collaborate with many talented students, helping me take my skills to new heights. 

 -Sound Editing: From cleaning up audio recordings to creating impactful sound effects, I have a keen ear for detail and a mastery of various editing tools and techniques.

 - Foley and Sound Effects: I am skilled at capturing and creating unique sound effects and Foley work to bring life and authenticity to any visual medium.

- Mixing and Mastering: I excel in the art of balancing and enhancing individual tracks to create a polished and cohesive final mix, as well as ensuring the highest quality in audio mastering.

Throughout my time at Columbia, I have strategically focused my coursework in the following areas: 

· Audio for Visual Media

 My mission is to elevate the impact of audio on visual and interactive media through innovative, high-quality sound design. I am committed to collaborating closely with creators and developers to realize their vision and to craft impactful auditory experiences that resonate with audiences on a deeper level.  

 I strive to push the boundaries of traditional sound design and embrace new technologies and techniques, always seeking to push myself to deliver cutting-edge, exceptional audio that enhances and elevates the overall experience of any project. 

At the heart of my mission is the belief that great audio has the power to transform and elevate the storytelling experience, and my goal is to continue to be a leading voice in the world of audio and sound design, driving innovation and creating experiences that leave a lasting impression.
