Spot the Composer is the Marché du Film’s program designed to connect professional film composers with feature film directors and producers in Cannes.

Launched in 2020 with the support of SACEM, Spot the Composer brings together 10 talented international film composers each year, offering them a one-of-a-kind opportunity to boost their visibility, spark new collaborations, and take their careers to the next level!

The selected composers are invited to take part in exclusive one-to-one meetings, meticulously curated to match them with film projects at various stages of development or production. They will also gain invaluable industry insights through case studies and masterclasses led by industry experts and key figures in the world of film music composition.

Applications for the 2025 Spot the Composer program are now closed. The 10 selected composers will be notified on 28 March.

Sound and music professionals, this event is made for you!

Spot the Composer bridges the gap between film music composers and directors or producers looking for original music for their projects. It provides a valuable platform for composers to showcase their talent, collaborate, and ultimately contribute to the creation of melodious soundtrack for films.

During last year’s 2024 edition, composers were given the opportunity to present their portfolios and engage in engaging discussions with filmmakers actively seeking music for their projects. This orchestrated a dynamic and collaborative environment where new ideas and partnerships flourished to compose new creative possibilities.
