WHAT IS YOUR ROLE IN YOUR
COMPANY? HOW LONG HAVE
YOU BEEN THERE AND HOW
DID YOU GET THERE?
Salito: As CFO I'd say my main
role is that of responsible financial
planning, but in a company like this
we do many jobs. On some days my
answer to what my role is would be "I
don't know but if you find out please
tell me ASAP." At one point I was
also CEO but that job was thankfully
handed over to the extremely
capable hands of Vic Icasas. So
amongst my many achievements in
the company I'm the only one with
the distinction of getting a demotion.
This shows that unlike most I have
the versatility to go both up and
down the corporate ladder. I've been
working here for almost 25 years.
Raul: I’m the CEO and one of the
founders of Sound Design Inc.
in 1997. Before that, I’ve been
in advertising since the 1980’s in
various roles from media, account
management, broadcast production
and my last phase before forming the
company was as freelance producer.
HOW DID YOU LEAD YOUR SOUND
PRODUCTION COMPANY TO BE
ON THE TOP OF THE LEAGUE?
Salito: Hit Productions Inc.
has always been a team effort.
So regarding leadership of the
company I guess my answer is:
ask Vic, Dennis and Brian.
Raul: Soundesign is envisioned
to be a platform for people or
individuals who share the s possible
and our reliance on God who
allows us to do what we love.
WHAT MUSIC GENRE DO
YOU APPRECIATE AND
ENJOY THE MOST?
Salito: Asking what music genre I
like the most is like asking a parent
to choose between their kids. Much
depends on my mood at the time. I
like Rock, especially from the 60's
and early 70's. But at different times
it could be jazz, classical, blues...
there have been times that I really
enjoy love song ballads, but shhh let
that be my dirty little secret. Lyrics
are really important to me and often
define how I relate t
