About

Justin Tinucci is a Film Composer, Producer, Sound Designer, Guitarist, Songwriter, and Actor. He discovered his passion for scoring to picture by being involved in the entertainment industry from a young age. Starting with being featured on the front page of The Wall Street Journal, being interviewed on Good Morning America, ABC World News, and The Ellen Degeneres Show, and making a guest appearance on Nickelodeon’s iCarly via gaining media recognition for being one of the youngest professional indoor skydivers at the time, Justin gained an interest in the world of film and media. This led to many more acting appearances on both film and tv screens, including Big Love (HBO), Trophy Wife (ABC), Class Clowns (Cartoon Network), Lady Dynamite (Netflix), The Goldbergs (ABC), AP Bio (NBC), The Muppets Movie, and more.

Justin knew he was going to be a film composer when he was 16. He was in a band throughout high school that went on numerous tours and won national awards. When he was thinking about what to go to school for, studying directing and film production would have isolated him from the world of professional music and vice-versa. He discovered the best way to remain a professional musician and be in Hollywood’s film industry was to study the art of film score. He spent one year studying classical guitar at CSUN before pursuing his bachelor’s degree in their esteemed Media Composition Program, from which he will graduate in the Fall of 2020.

Since Justin’s studies began, he has been active in scoring numerous short films for both students and professionals. In 2018, Justin worked on one LAVC short film and one CSUN short film, and so far in 2019, he has worked on seven more projects, including Tracy Pellegrino’s “Permanent Record”, which is set to hit film festival circuits in 2020, one Columbia College Hollywood thesis “Blackbird”, one CSUN thesis “The Last Hope”, which premiered at the Writers Guild Theatre in Beverly Hills, and four other CSUN shorts. These projects have spanned many genres, including Horror, Drama, Mystical, Comedy, Documentary, and Indie.
