Vancouver International Film Festival: Composer and Filmmaker Accelerator Shaping the Future of Film Music

This year, 12 talented composers will collaborate with four established filmmakers through virtual sessions and an in-person recording and mixing sessions at Vancouver’s renowned The Warehouse Studios. Their compositions will be performed by the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. Over six weeks, participants will develop symphonic scores through collaboration with the filmmakers and mentorship from industry experts, focusing on both traditional and innovative scoring techniques. The CFA remains a pivotal program for advancing careers for emerging talent, driving forward the future of music in film.
