December 22, 200718 yr Well, where do I start? I'm a composer and I can compose music for you. Here are a couple samples of mines... Legend of Vanadia - Hero's Theme A soft orchestral piece I composed for a game called Legend of Vanadia. Jazzy Drum Solo A melodic, jazzy drum solo I recently composed. Forest Theme Theme I composed for a peaceful forest. Symphonic Orchestral Piece A random symphonic orchestral piece I composed, that is about 30 seconds long. As for requirements, I only asks of one thing. If you're going to ask me to compose, please at least have a demo or something you can show me. If you're interested PM me.
December 22, 200718 yr A tip - a forum for composers isn't the best place to advertise yourself aas a composer, there are rather a lot of us around you see ;) Why not try some of the places I and a few others suggested when you asked about this in the shoutbox?
December 22, 200718 yr Here's an idea - take some video off YouTube or perhaps some indie filmmaker/animator forum or something, and write music for it. No one's going to come here looking for you. You can't sit around waiting for the phone to ring...because it won't. Do it yourself, start your own project.

You can't expect COMPOSERS to come looking for composers, and we don't get a lot of non-composers here anyway... ;) Oh well, look at some video game sites, I am sure people would love to have a willing composer to write music for their original video games. :thumbsup:
December 22, 200718 yr Oh well, look at some video game sites, I am sure people would love to have a willing composer to write music for their original video games. :thumbsup: Seconded - don't expect to get paid though.
December 22, 200718 yr Seconded - don't expect to get paid though. Also seconded, not at least for the first few times anyway... especially independent video game producers.
December 23, 200718 yr Author I'm not looking for a paid project. I'm just looking for a project. I'm not looking for money.
December 23, 200718 yr Then yes, your best bet would be an independent video game site, even I've done a couple of projects here and there with some of them (dang, I should have saved those links...)

You can't sit around waiting for the phone to ring...because it won't. Do it yourself, start your own project. I have actually become a member here to seek out composers, and not for video games...for webcomics. It is early yet to make grand claims and promises, but in my opinion, no good movie makes it without good music. The same will become true for the next generation of webcomics if I have my way...
March 12, 200818 yr Dear Young Prodigy; Don't count on someone finding you and recruiting you from here. Perhaps you are not... Decide exactly what media you want to compose for and go looking; music for books on tape, themes/jingles, scoring for websites, video games, flash presentations, home videos and/or CGI movies, webcomics, ect. That probably does not begin to scratch the surface of the possibilites, but you may well know that already. You don't want/expect money, so someone will snap you up in a hurry. What things depend on are your personal tastes and your evaluation of your abilities. Obviously, select a project(s) you can be inspired by, enjoy and feel good about being a part of. Music has great power. I hope you can make people very happy with it. Good hunting, ~ Mathew
