SoundTrack_Cologne 16 – Competitions nominees
SoundTrack_Cologne festival, that will celebrate this year its 16th edition from August 28th to 31st, 2019 in Cologne (Germany), has announced the nominees for the European Talent Competition and the Peer Raben Music Award.
The goal of the European Talent Competition is to invite young composers and sound designers to create a new soundtrack (score and/or sound design) for the short film DO YOU LIKE GODARD? (by Florian Vey). The best creations of an independent, original approach, to interpret and support narration and picture level with a new soundtrack, will receive the WDR FILMSCORE AWARD and the EUROPEAN TALENT AWARD SOUND DESIGN.
The results will be presented on the big screen to audience and jury, moderated by Yati Durant. Jury-members are WDR Funkhausorchester conductor Enrico Delamboye, Sound Designer and director Josef Steinbüchel of TORUS GmbH, composer Iva Zabkar, producer Erik Winkler, and music supervisor Catherine Grieves.
The competition screening will be held during the festival, on Saturday, 31st August, 10h at Turistarama. The winners will be announced that same night at SoundTrack_Cologne’s festive Award Ceremony.
The winner of the WDR FILMSCORE AWARD has the opportunity to record his composition with the WDR Funkhausorchester. The awarded price of the EUROPEAN TALENT AWARD SOUND DESIGN is a 5.1 Surround Short Mix in the sound mixing studio TORUS in Cologne, which donates this award.
