Gutierrez designed a number of soundscapes for the film, set
in and around a home in Bel Air, California. “We created a lot of ambient textures,”
notes Gutierrez. “We made the sound environment very real and brought scenes to
life, without getting in the way of the comedy.”
“We needed a lot of Foley effects,” adds SETH producer Arianna
Lyons. “Roundabout has an incredible sound library and didn’t need to create a
lot of new elements. We had many sound options; it was a dream!”

SETH has drawn wide praise for its offbeat but heartfelt
story of a young man who has a fondness for corn, draws inspiration from
Michael Jordan quotes, and whose only friends are stuffed animals. It won at
Alternative Cinema Prize at the Las Vegas International Film Festival. It also
won Best Comedy Short at the inaugural I Filmmaker International Film Festival.
The film is slated for further screenings at festivals in Canada and France.
