The Cue Tube is a global community of more than 7,000 composers for film, TV and game music. We provide resources for composers to develop and for filmmakers and game developers who need a great composer for their project.
The beginning of each year marks our amazing Score Relief campaign when the community comes together to celebrate creativity while contributing to real change.
Score Relief is a free film scoring contest, open to all, running in parallel with our fundraiser to support a charity of our choice. This year we are partnering with In Place of War, a global organisation that uses creativity as a tool for positive change in places of conflict. They work with grassroots changemakers in music and across the arts to help communities rebuild by transforming a culture of violence and suffering into hope, opportunity and freedom.
For composers, thousands of dollars’ worth of prizes are available, principal of which is the opportunity to have your music performed and recorded by session orchestra Northern Film Orchestra at the prestigious Stoller Hall in Manchester, England. See the amazing performance of last year’s winning score here.
If you feel able to support Score Relief through a donation, however small, The Cue Tube, In Place of War and the network of changemakers across the world would be very grateful.
Winner of Score Relief 2022 will be announced in March 2022 on our YouTube channel. See entries on YouTube here.
Connect with us and our >7,000-strong global community of composers and other creatives on Discord. It’s a great place to share and get answers to questions on Score Relief 2022 as well as DAWs, plugins, libraries, orchestration and other aspects of media composition. We’ve created a tutorial run-through in case you’re new to Discord, like us!
Most of our resources are free but we’d appreciate any support you can offer. Patrons will receive special benefits such as the ‘noir’ trailer previewed here, that we created for you to rescore. Benefits start from as little as £1 a month. Thank you!
One-time payments of support for our work can be made through PayPal.
