Biog
Dug Campbell is an accomplished composer whose work spans an extraordinary range of genres. From full orchestral scores to ambient soundscapes, world music-infused pieces to electronic tracks, hip-hop jazz beats, medieval choral works blended with pulsating synths, and songs for musicals, his music defies boundaries. Whatever the style, Dug’s compositions are crafted to enrich storytelling and evoke powerful emotional connections.
As a trained orchestrator, Dug also offers music notation support, including score preparation, arranging, and copyist services for projects requiring professional precision.
He holds certificates in Advanced Professional Orchestration for Film and TV, Music Theory & Composition and Graduate Film Scoring Technology from Berklee College of Music. In addition, as a writer, he also holds a M.A. (Distinction) in screenwriting borne out of his love of storytelling and theatre.
