Bogdan Cristinoiu was born in Bucharest, Romania. He is the son of the iconic composer Ion Cristinoiu.
He started music very young, drums, percussion instruments and piano. He started to take arrangement courses with his father, and also started his own recording studio. He wrote the song "Un Actor Grabit" for singer Laura Stoica, and won the most important prize of the moment "Best Song of the Year", offered by the Romanian Composers Union. Also, the song won the TV/Radio prize for the song that lasted the most in Romanian Top 10.[1][2]
After experimenting with sound, he started to study visual arts: photography, cinematography, digital media, editing. He personally met one of the people he respects the most in Hollywood, Walter Murch, sound designer and editor with multiple Oscars for both sound and editing. This was the moment when he realized that he can combine both his passions, sound & visual arts and he doesn't have to choose.
Living in the United States opened him whole new possibilities of expression for music and cinematography.
