Ruiqi Zhao on SoundBetter

I’m Ruiqi Zhao – an award-winning composer whose work includes A Legend (Jackie Chan), One True Loves(Phillipa Soo), and PUBG. I’ve scored films featured in top festivals and I'm a Grammy voter and member of the Television Academy. I am also a composer for Epidemic Sound and Artlist io. Let’s bring your vision to life!

🎬
I specialize in cinematic scoring across genres – from sweeping orchestral to modern hybrid, intimate piano to experimental textures. Whether you're crafting an emotional short film, a thrilling game trailer, or a commercial that needs just the right touch, I bring storytelling to life through music.

I also won Best Score in SoCal Film Awards , and my pieces were placed in shows that are streaming on Netflix and Apple TV. My piece The Elf Led Me To You got accepted for the 2024 Women Composers Festival of Hartford. In addition, I also got accepted into VIFF AMP(Vancouver International Film Festival - Music in Film Summit 2023). I am one of the finalists of Apulia Soundtrack Awards and Semi-Finalists of FMC Film Music Contest.

    Riqui Zhao is a delight to work with. She is accomplished and professional, and very personable. We are very happy with her composition and the great communication we had with her. Would recommend her highly.
