About the project:
Composers of short film scores are invited to submit their films to be screened at a special moderated event on Friday 3rd April 2020 as part of the Festival International du Film d'Aubagne. This event will be open to the public and will take place during the festival as a unique event designed to promote new and emerging film composition talent. Composers of the film scores will have their information published in the official film festival catalogues and receive free accreditation as well as the opportunity to attend the 3rd Character matchmaking sessions with directors and other industry professionals.
