MANUELA LUBRANO

Manuela Lubrano is an Italian Film and Media composer based in Bristol whose work centres on telling unheard stories through music for films that raise awareness and inspire social change. Her distinctive sound blends contemporary orchestration, electronic textures, and her own voice to create immersive, emotionally charged scores.

​

Her music has been featured internationally, with her debut score for When the Floods Come, winner of the Yugo BAFTA 2024, earning nominations for Best Original Score at the Hollywood Music in Media Awards (2024) and Best Score at the RTS West of England Awards (2025). Recent work includes award-winning documentary Stone Biter: Saving the Arctic Sea Forests and Jackson Wild-nominated feature documentary The Tuna Truth.​

​

Manuela is also the founder and director of Art Comes Alive, a live performance exhibition that supports local art, where painters create visual art in real time, inspired by music composed for the event. Through this work, she continues to explore the connection between sound, image, and emotion, inviting audiences to reflect and engage with art as a transformative, therapeutic experience.
