As an award winning and Emmy nominated composer, Craig Stuart Garfinkle's career includes work on feature films, video games, trailers, documentaries, multimedia, television, commercials, stage and CDs.

Craig just completed composing for the iconic video game, World of WarCraft and its expansion, “Warlords of Draenor,” which won the "Best Game Score" category in the "Hollywood Music in  Media Awards."  The score received countless other nominations including an ASCAP Composer's Choice Nomination.  This is a continuation of Craig's experience in video games which dates back to the earliest Dungeons and Dragons video games. 

Craig has just completed composing his 30th film score, the family drama, “It’s Dark Here” (Starring Illiana Douglas, Bubba Lewis, and William Mapother).  Other recent features include:  The black comedy, “Get Out if You Can” (Directed by TJ Martin), the supernatural thriller, "Blood Relative" (Starring Cristin Milioti, Todd Alcott, writer of  "Antz," is the writer/director).  Earlier this year, Craig wrote the score for the indie comedy and now festival favorite "Karaoke Man" (starring Bug Hall, Spencer Locke and Caitlin Crosby).

Other recent TV projects include the VH1 sketch comedy program, “Stevie TV”.  The show features numerous musical parodies of current artists such as Lady Ga Ga and Katy Perry.  Craig performs, produces, and co-composes these songs.

His music has appeared in 100's of other film and television projects such as NBC's "The Office," "Fringe," "Lost," "The Sopranos," and "X Factor," "America's Got Talent." 

Craig is maybe best known, however, for his musical contribution to film trailers, often with partner Simone Benyacar (of The Ant Farm).  Some of his recent projects in this genre would include:  “Red,” "J.J. Abrams Star Trek," "Sin City," the last three "Harry Potter Films," "Vicky Christina Barcelona," "Over the Hedge," Spider-man III," "HALO II," " James Bond, A Quantum of Solace," and many more.  His composition, "Waltz to the Underworld" received a 2018 Mark Award nomination for "Best Trailer Composition."
