Why game creators and devs use ComposerScout

FOR COMPOSERS

Get your music in front of the devs who need it

You don't need a big following. Developers find you through their game, their scene and their mood.

• A free profile with your own linkYour page at composerscout.com/c/your-name holds your reel, samples, game credits, rates and how you like to work. Share it anywhere, and search engines can list it by name.
• Matched by sound, not by followersYou tag each sample by scene, mood and genre. When a developer describes their game, the samples that fit come up, whether you have scored ten games or none yet.
• Heard where it mattersDevelopers play your samples over their own gameplay clip in the Gameplay studio, so they hear how your music feels in their world, not just on its own.
• A free weekly spotlightThe Roundtable gives six creators the spotlight each week, three for audio and three for art, VFX and game dev, and rotates through the community. Spots are never for sale.
• Roles come to youStudios post open roles. Pitch one with a sample in a couple of clicks, or turn on role alerts and get an email whenever a studio posts a role for composers.
• See who's listeningPrivate profile visit counts show whether your page is getting attention. Your music and your rights stay yours.

FOR SOUND DESIGNERS

Get your sound design heard, not buried under music

On ComposerScout, sound design has its own spot, not a single line in a composer's list.

• A profile that says what you doPick Sound design (or Both) and your page and card say so, so devs browsing for sound spot you right away.
• Specialties devs actually search forSFX, Foley, UI and menu sounds, ambience, combat and weapons, creatures, plus voice, implementation and mixing. When a dev picks one in Find my match, they hear sound designers, not soundtracks.
• Heard over their gameplayYour ambience and sound reels play over a developer's own clip in the Gameplay studio, the same way music does.
• Roles for sound, not just musicStudios can hire a composer, a sound designer, or both. Roles for sound designers come to you first, and role alerts send you every new sound role.
• A founding badgeThe first 20 sound designers to publish get a 🌱 Founding sound designer badge on their page.

FOR VOICE ACTORS

Get cast by indie devs who need a voice

Indie games need heroes, villains and narrators, and the devs making them are often small teams with no casting director.

• A profile built for voicesPick Voice acting and your page says so. List the voices you play, like heroes, villains, narrators, creatures and accents, and add your demo clips.
• Heard in their gameDevelopers play your demos over their own gameplay clip in the Gameplay studio, so they hear how your voice sits in their world.
• Found when a dev asks for a voiceWhen a developer picks a voice specialty in Find my match, like character voices, narration or villains, voice actors come up.
• Roles for voicesStudios can post a role for a voice actor. Pitch it with a demo in a couple of clicks, or turn on role alerts and get an email when one goes up.
• A founding badgeThe first 20 voice actors to publish get a 🌱 Founding voice actor badge on their page.

FOR ARTISTS AND VFX ARTISTS

Get your art and effects seen by the devs who need them

Indie games need a look as much as a sound, and small teams often have nobody to make it. Art and VFX get their own spot here, with tools made for pictures and clips.

• A profile that says what you makeYour page and card say you make art, VFX or both, with your pieces, rates and how you like to work at one link. Devs who open the Art or VFX tab in Find my match see artists, not soundtracks.
• Found by what your work showsEach piece is tagged by what it shows and how it looks, so devs find you through their game's style, not your follower count.
• Seen next to their gameDevelopers put your piece next to a screenshot of their game in the art tab of the Gameplay studio, so they see how it fits their world.
• Your name on your workPictures and clips can carry your name as a watermark burned in, with an optional stronger repeating mark. Copy checks flag re-uploads of protected pictures.
• Three Roundtable seatsThree of the six weekly Roundtable seats go to art, VFX and game dev, so you get your turn in the spotlight too.
• A founding badgeThe first 20 artists and the first 20 VFX artists to publish get a 🌱 Founding artist or 🌱 Founding VFX artist badge on their page.

MORE VISIBILITY FOR EVERYONE

How everyone gets seen

ComposerScout grows visibility in both directions. Every composer, sound designer, voice actor, artist, VFX artist, writer and video editor who joins gives developers more to try, and every studio that opens a role gives them more work to pitch.

Nobody can promise a job or a hire, and we won't. What we can do is make sure good music, sound, voices, art, effects and games have a fair chance of finding each other.
