A great score tells a unique story.
"Weng is a highly-skilled, talented composer, orchestrator, and great collaborator. Her work is exceptional, as in her attention to detail. She is genuinely engaged in the entire process of media scoring. Her positive attitude shines through in her ability to be a wonderful collaborator in an array of settings, from working with a director on creating the right tone for a film, to being part of a team."
--Lolita Ritmanis (Emmy, Grammy® award winning composer)
