About me
I’m Sebas Coto, a creative director, editor, and storyteller driven by a passion for crafting narratives that connect and inspire. Born and raised in the vibrant culture of Costa Rica, I bring over a decade of experience as an editor and post-producer, blending technical expertise with a unique creative vision to produce content that resonates across Latin America, the United States, and Spain. My work strikes a balance between artistic integrity and commercial impact, turning every project into both a creative and strategic success. Over the years, my projects have been featured on platforms like Billboard Latino, Rolling Stone en Español, and Directors Library, and have earned recognition at international festivals, including OnePointFour, the Video Prisma Awards (BAMVF), and the Bogotá Music Video Festival. As a founding member of NINE, a post-production studio turned creative production house, I’ve had the privilege of leading projects for global brands like Forever 21 and Seagrams Escapes. I’ve also collaborated with world-class artists like Steve Aoki and partnered with major record labels such as Jagjaguwar, Dim Mak, Sony Music Spain, Warner Music, and Sony Music US Latin. For me, it’s not just about creating videos—it’s about crafting memorable visual experiences that leave a lasting impact. Whether it’s a brand campaign or a music video, I thrive on bringing ideas to life and helping projects reach their full potential. Let’s create something remarkable together.
