Rebel Rodriguez has composed music in both Film and VR. In 2017, Rebel, alongside his father acclaimed film director Robert Rodriguez and his older brother Racer Rodriguez, formed Double R Productions, a development and production company with capabilities to produce media projects across film, television, gaming, and interactive platforms.

Double R’s latest project is a new feature film called Red 11.  To commemorate the 25th anniversary of El Mariachi, Robert Rodriguez went back to his roots and challenged himself to make a feature film under the same constraints he had in 1992, with a budget of only $7,000 dollars and 14 days to shoot. Rebel both acted in the film as the character Knives and composed the score.

The production of the film was also documented for a 6-part docu-series featuring Robert and his son Racer making the film called Rebel without a Crew: The Robert Rodriguez Film School. Red 11 and a sneak preview of the docu-series had its world premiere at SXSW in March of 2019. Double R also produced a state-of-the-art virtual reality live-action short film called The Limit starring Michelle Rodriguez and Norman Reedus which was released to all VR platforms in November 2018.

Rebel has also made a name for himself in the weapons manufacturing industry as a professional bladesmith with his own blade-making company Rebelde Blades.  Rebel appeared on Season 1 and 2 of El Rey Network’s Man at Arms: Art of War.

In 2018, Rebel went on to compete in History Channel’s competition reality series Forged in Fire where he took home the championship.
