Eric Huang
Hey, thanks for dropping by! My name is Eric and what excites me is experimenting with different sounds and blending genres into unique collages. Since my first short film in 2020, I’ve written music for 62 short films and did recording sessions for 43 of them! I love collaborating with filmmakers and musicians!
Longer Bio: So far I’ve written music for 62 short films. This allowed me to compose in a variety of genres such as drama, horror, thriller, documentary, comedy, and animation and my music has ranged from jazz and orchestral to operatic vocals sung through a megaphone. It wasn’t until the 12th short film that I started working with musicians to record the score. This opened up a whole world of possibilities and expressiveness that wasn’t possible on my computer.
Since then, I’ve conducted and recorded 43 soundtracks in spaces such as the John Williams Scoring Stage at USC, the UCLA scoring stage, and EastWest Studios (Studio One and Two) in Hollywood, a historic studio where the themes for The Godfather and the original Mission Impossible were recorded. (Look below for some behind-the-scenes videos of the sessions!)
Earlier this year I also got the cheapest plane tickets and flew to Europe to conduct a 59-musician orchestra for a musical theater short film.
Although I mainly focus on film scoring, I also create concert works. This September, I had an amazing experience being the composer in residence for the Jackson Symphony in Tennessee! This involved doing a talk about the piece at the Jackson-Madison County Library, rehearsing with the orchestra, and culminated with a Q&A on stage and the premiere of my 16-minute orchestral concert work, The Odyssey!
I'm always venturing into new styles and genres with every score I create so feel free to reach out even if you don’t hear an example of what you’re looking for!
