Amy Stolzenbach is a Seattle-based composer whose has collaborated with filmmakers and creative people at Sweetgrass Productions, Clear H2O Films, Reelwater Productions, Duct Tape Then Beer, Design House Collective, Eddie Bauer, Patagonia, Outdoor Research, La Sportiva, Cascade Designs and Acr'Teryx. These collaborations have lead to multiple awards at film festivals like 5Point, MountainFilm and Banff.
In addition to earning the respect of her peers for her longstanding contributions to the Seattle music community, she has studied Film Scoring and Orchestration at Berklee College of Music in their Orchestration for Film and TV master program.
"I think every project is different and deserves 100% of what I have to offer. Filmmakers work for months or years on these films before they pass the baton to me, so trust and mutual respect are a must in these collaborations. Asking the right questions is always essential to ensure that everyone is happy in the end."
