Fun and Informative Facts About Scott Emerson

         Scott Emerson is a Los Angeles area composer, performer, and teacher who gets an enormous kick out of playing around with sounds.  He is not classically trained, but has been fortunate enough to study with a number of interesting musicians over the years (including master jazz composer John LaBarbera) and has been described by his mentors and peers as "fundamentally weird."  This is largely due to his amoeba-like ability to absorb and assimilate any tasty particles of music that may happen to float his way, allowing him to freely experiment with a myriad of styles and approaches without being a slave to any one of them.  Hence, he has developed a knack for producing eclectic, unusual music and a keen ear for atmosphere and mood.

         In recent history, Scott has scored a Discovery Channel documentary entitled "Crying Wolf - The Mysterious World of Munchausen's Syndrome" and is currently producing music for ESPN's "New American Sportsman."  He is new to the world of film scoring, but would like to bring his unflinching, relentless dedication and rock-solid work ethic to as many projects as he can possibly handle.  He is therefore issuing the following open appeal to every single filmmaker on the planet Earth:  "Please hire me to score your next project.  I'm a tremendously fantastic composer."

         When not being propositioned by filmmakers, Scott enjoys writing radio jingles and library music, studying mathematical theory, hiking, fishing, watching terrible movies about zombies, doing the occasional odd public performance, and writing about himself in the third person.
