Tan Onwimon

Biography

I am a media composer who grew up in Bangkok, Thailand, wanting to become a filmmaker and a musical director. I went to film school for the undergraduate level and ended up scoring music for half of my classmates’ thesis films.

I began my career as an ensemble cast in many theatre productions, from a small political theatre to a musical including Dreamgirls the Musical (Thailand Cast). From there, I learned music composition by sitting beside the musical conductor during the performance. The experience opened many more opportunities for me to continue expressing my music in a different art of storytelling such as in films, video games, and drag shows. My music has been featured in various media including Hulu Original Series Wu-Tang: An American Saga Season 2-3, THAI Airways Inflight video, Agoda.com’s Underwater Minigame, Tipitaka: the Living Message (Documentary), The National Parks of Thailand (Documentary), and more.

Recently in February of 2023, I also collaborated with the Colorado Symphony by arranging and orchestrating music for the world premiere of the contemporary ballet “The Ballet Through Mud”.

I am a recent graduate from the USC Screen Scoring Program under the mentorship of Lolita Ritmanis, Patrick Kirst, and Pete Anthony.
