WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Carlos Felipe, Film Director.
"It was a pleasure working with Franc Cinelli on our Short Documentary Film. His composition beautifully captured the essence of Generative Art by adding depth and emotion, enhancing the storytelling. I would highly recommend Franc for his creativity, professionalism, enthusiasm, and responsiveness."
“I’m a director of film for the past ten years with over 100 festival appearances. My debut film - Devotion had a bespoke score from Franc that was inseparable from the film and a big contributor to its success. Currently my film Read to Me is gathering mass at festival screenings and I was able to find everything I need from Franc’s Music For Music Pictures - a collection of music that is beautifully filmic and real. I love Franc’s music and highly recommend him to you as a composer for film.”
Dan Horrigan, Screenwriter & Director
“Franc Cinelli is an inimitable creative soul. He crafts evocative music that goes beyond entertainment, exploring hard-to-reach emotions between mind and heart. His curiosity, range, and artisan’s intelligence blend in every conversation and composition. Whether he's crafting poignant narratives with acoustic guitar, striking resonant movements across the cello, or exploring new sonic territories with emerging technologies, Franc demonstrates a relentless commitment to authenticity and craft. It’s rare to find a creative collaborator who’s as prolific and bespoke as Franc.”
