Sebastian Watzinger Composer

It all begins with an idea.

I highly value collaboration and greatly enjoy the creative process alongside the filmmakers and producers I work with.

During my years (2003-2006) at a Hollywood based music production company, I truly cut my teeth in composition and music production and went deep into sampling, synthesizer programming and routing of a full recording studio as well as being mentored by two incredibly talented composers and teachers. I have 20 years of experience and thorough knowledge of Logic and ProTools, both of which I use daily.

In 2003 I was part in the music department for the TV show ​Ocean Ave​. Between 2003-2006 I composed and produced music for three animated TV series (Shadow of the Elves,​ 26 episodes;​ Sherm,​ 26 episodes; ​Da Boom Crew,​ 13 episodes) and wrote the music for several TV commercials for McDonald’s global I​’m lovin’ it​ campaign. Additionally, I scored a full-length TV feature (​Mein Vater, seine Neue und ich​) and a short film (Just Get Married!​)

From 2007, I continued my work as a freelance composer and producer working on Award-Winning short films such as ​About Simon​ (2013), ​Verlängertes Wochenende​ (2014), Michaela​ (2015) and Die Randgruppe​ (2015), TV commercials for BMW, Lindt, Porsche Design and Zalando, documentaries (I cut it from my soul : Andreas Kuhnlein​, 2018), and theatre productions The Miracle Mystery Play (2018), NORA (2018), and Christus (2019), just to name a few.

Since 2014 I am writing and producing for several different production music publishers worldwide (EMI, BMG, Sonoton, Klangidee, Music Sculptor and Roba PM). That has helped me understand and write music for a wide spectrum of moods, genres and situations focused on the usage in film and TV. My music has since been featured daily on TV in Europe, North and South America.
