Originally having more in common with Iggy Pop than Igor Stravinsky, Hedrick spent nearly two decades relentlessly touring the world and releasing Billboard-charting albums with his metal band Skeletonwitch. Seeking new musical challenges (and an opportunity to stay in one place) Hedrick tipped the scales toward Stravinsky and enrolled in UCLA’s film scoring program.

In addition to developing his orchestration and symphonic writing chops, he also established a fruitful working relationship with then-instructor, now collaborator, Nima Fakhrara (Detroit Become Human, Lou). It was through this partnership that Scott fell in love with music editing and he hasn’t looked back. In this role he has worked with exceptional composers Lorne Balfe (Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning, Top Gun: Maverick) and Jung Jae-il (Parasite, Squid Game), as well as Paramount and Warner Brothers studios

Scott is a member of the Motion Picture Editors Guild (Local 700) and continues to seek new musical challenges as a freelance composer and editor. When he’s not sitting in a dark room laboring over scores, he’s out running marathons or sitting in a different dark room listening to records. Outside of film music, his favorite genres include free-jazz, psych-rock, Krautrock, and minimalist composition.
