BIOGRAPHY
Manuela Lubrano is an Italian Media Composer specialised in scoring films that address significant topics such as climate change, human rights, and social issues. She is now the in-house composer at Human Rights at Sea International and Jungli Films Company and has partnered with Alexander Leeming Froudakis. Her debut work includes scoring music for the documentaries When the Floods Come and Death at Sea, in collaboration with Human Rights at Sea and Human Rights at Sea International, broadcasted internationally and screened in London and the USA.
In 2023, during her Master's degree in Music composition for film & TV at the University of Bristol, Manuela had the opportunity to re-score one of The BBC's wildlife scenes, "Fierce Queen - Love Trap." Her collaboration with BBC producer Tuppence Stone provided a valuable real-world experience for her.​ She also had the opportunity to learn from professional composers like William Goodchild and Tess Tyler. There, she honed her skills in advanced orchestration under John Pickard and music production under Jonathan Scott.
Manuela loves to integrate her vocals into her scores, whether used subtly and texturally or more melodically. She is also the Founder and Director of "Art Comes Alive" an art exhibition where painters create live art inspired by the music written by her and other selected composers. With a hidden thematic element in each piece of music, her aim is to engage audiences, encouraging reflection and utilising music and art as a therapeutic medium.
