Graduating with a degree in Music Composition and Tuba Performance from California State University, Long Beach, Seth has always had a love for music and storytelling. Capable of a variety of styles and mediums, he has composed orchestral scores for The Gravediggers (2004) and El Paletero (2005), both directed by Bryan Thompson. These were composed and then recorded in three sessions by the Cal State Long Beach Studio Orchestra. The films Fade In (2006, dir. Josh Stone) and Across the White Line (2006, dir. Marlowe Greenlee) are more representative of Seth's commercial music abilities.

In addition to composing for film, Seth has had experience in orchestration, arranging, music copying, and recording engineering. Notable is his orchestration for the independent film The Breed. For more information, please review Seth's Resume or contact him through e-mail at SethShafer@gmail.com.
