Биография

Jongnic “JB” Bontemps is a uniquely modern film composer who has been tapped by Paramount Pictures to score the blockbuster, sci-fi action movie Transformers: Rise of The Beasts for director and long time collaborator Steven Caple Jr. As a composer and creative collaborator, JB fuses a contemporary sound with timeless emotion. His music can be heard in the Thomas Kail produced Disney + feature film World’s Best, the Netflix romantic comedy Wedding Season, the CW sci-fi series 4400, and the dramatic feature Last Night in Rozzie directed by Sean Gannet. He became the go-to composer for director Steven Caple Jr. while scoring his coming-of-age drama The Land, for which he also orchestrated the song “This Bitter Land” performed by Nas and Erykah Badu. Born in Brooklyn, JB learned the piano and soaked up his gospel and jazz surroundings. He studied music at Yale and later found himself at the heart of the tech industry as a software developer and entrepreneur. He thrived there for several years, but eventually decided to pursue his deeper passion and jumped head-first into the film scoring program at USC and the Sundance Film Music Lab. He apprenticed as a programmer for numerous A-list Hollywood composers before breaking out on his own. “Film music has to tell a story without words,” JB says. “Its job is to add depth and dimension to the images and words presented on screen. That’s what attracted me to the medium; the opportunity to really express emotion with music alone.”
