Iago Rodriguez Paulino, 21, is a composer based in Boston, Massachusetts. His writing for media has been recognized for its versatility, effectiveness, creative orchestration, and especially storytelling. As someone with experience in mixed media, he has created music for short films, video games, and immersive experiences, and is noted for adapting seamlessly across styles and genres. This breadth of experience has made him a sought-after collaborator in both narrative and interactive settings.

​

In addition to composing, Iago has developed substantial expertise in orchestration. He has contributed orchestrations for professional pitches, and a major symphonic work he orchestrated is set to be premiered in 2026 by a leading orchestra. His background in score preparation makes him a reliable copyist and assistant, while his training in conducting enhances his role in recording sessions, allowing him to bridge the gap between the written score and live performance with clarity and artistry.

As he completes his Bachelor’s degree at Berklee College of Music, pursuing a double major in Film Scoring and Composition with minors in Video Game Scoring and Conducting, he is on track to graduate summa cum laude.

Perhaps most important, Iago’s music tells true stories—the stories of an increasingly diverse world, seen through the lens of a composer who never stops yearning to tell them.
