Film Score Fest challenges filmmakers and composers/music-makers to create a short film with original scoring, and we premiere chosen films with a live orchestra! Creators of all experience levels and artistic styles are welcome.

Join us for a kickoff celebration to meet fellow artists and potentially find someone to work with for the Film Score Fest challenge. You can also sign up as an individual and we’ll pair you with a random filmmaker/composer.
