MELODY DRIVEN

Dillon DeRosa has been an influential figure in the world of film music, bringing stories to life through his unforgettable scores for over 13 years. His ability to create powerful, emotionally resonant themes has made him a go-to composer for projects across a wide range of genres. Dillon’s work spans from the hit YouTube series Hot Ones—featuring Russell Brand—to the comedic historical channel Atun-Shei Films, CBS’s FBI: Most Wanted, and blockbusters like Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

Dillon’s scores are known for their immersive quality, bringing characters and stories to life through music alone. His work on Catching Up was praised for enhancing the emotional depth of the film, while his recent feature The Sudbury Devil was noted for its unsettling horror motifs and haunting sonic signature, solidifying his reputation as a versatile composer.

In addition to his work in film, Dillon has a deep passion for concert music. His most notable work, the 1861 Overture, draws inspiration from the American Civil War and the freedom of the slaves. Modeled after Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture, the piece weaves together themes from the American Civil War era. Commissioned by Andy Rakich for the “Checkmate Lincolnites” series on the Atun-Shei Films YouTube channel, the composition captures the conflict, tragedy, and triumph of the era, embodying Dillon’s ability to tell powerful, historically resonant stories through music.

Beyond composition, Dillon is proficient in developing custom tools and technology that streamline his workflow and ensure high-quality output for his clients. He continues to collaborate on major projects with acclaimed composer Nathan Whitehead—contributing to titles like Back 4 Blood and CBS’s FBI: Most Wanted—blending his musical and technical expertise to deliver top-tier work across the industry.

Dillon’s music is more than just a soundtrack—it’s a storytelling tool that enhances every frame, pulling audiences deeper into the world of the film. His ability to blend thematic, emotionally-driven music with cutting-edge technology has made him one of the most innovative and sought-after composers in the industry. Always pushing the boundaries of what film music can achieve, Dillon DeRosa continues to leave an indelible mark on every project he touches.

TESTIMONIALS

“Rare Talent!”

Bringing Dillon on as our composer was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. He has an increasingly rare talent for crafting memorable melodies that inspire a genuine emotional connection, capture the soul of the story, and stick in the viewer’s mind long after the credits have rolled. His impressive musical knowledge was matched only by his enthusiasm, creativity, and willingness to experiment in service of fulfilling my vision for the movie, and our collaboration was one of the most rewarding aspects of the entire film making process. I eagerly await the opportunity to work with him again.

“Wealth of Knowledge!”

Dillon makes it look easy. He’s consummately professional and extremely talented. He has a wealth of knowledge about music, and in our collaborations has shown incredible range. I’ve asked him for classical symphonies, jazzy showstoppers, even ’50s monster movie pastiches, and he’s delivered every time. I guarantee your audience will be whistling his melodies on their way out of the theater.

“Nails It Every Time!”

Dillon has scored every major film and web series I’ve directed starting with the first, The Vampire Leland, which earned accolades at numerous film festivals. He’s an enthusiastic collaborator and an incredibly creative composer. He’s scored classical, latin jazz, hip-hop/r&b, acid jazz… he’s always excited to dive head first into making my aural visions, reality. My editor nicknamed Dillon “The Carpenter,” because he nails it every time!
