Who is Jesse Haugen?
Jesse Haugen is an award winning composer from California whose work spans genres and platforms. His scores for Zach King have been heard by hundreds of millions across the globe, while his indie film scores have found audiences in some of the world's most prestigious film festivals like Camerimage and The Pan African Film Festival. His musical endeavors have taken him beyond the world of film as well. He's written original scores for multi-season episodic podcasts like The Sheridan Tapes, written and built interactive video game scores for upcoming games like Taria and Como, and worked with some of the world's biggest artists like Bebe Rexha and Halsey to craft original cinematic renditions of their hit pop songs.

In all these, it is Jesse's privilege to help passionate and talented storytellers/artists tell their stories and emotionally enrich and support their vision through music. His experience managing teams of orchestraters, copyists, engineers, and some of the world's top session musicians is key to his ability to bring life and originality to your project on budget, on time, and to the highest standard.
​
Jesse lives in California with his wife, two kids, and their dog, Goose. When he's not in the studio writing music, he can be found with them exploring the world or in a pile on the couch watching Netflix.
