Pfeffer's site lists work with trailer and production music names including Two Steps from Hell, Epic Score, Liquid Cinema, Gothic Storm and Position Music, and game credits at Dynamedion including CHORVS, Company of Heroes 3 and Crysis 2.[4] His YouTube channel says his music has featured in trailers for Pacific Rim, Sherlock Holmes and Harry Potter, and that he has collaborated with Mick Gordon, Trevor Morris and Frank Peterson.[3]
