Introduce Yourself : Im a composer and I’m open to unpaid or low-budget projects by Anaël-Oan Zilmia

Im a composer and I’m open to unpaid or low-budget projects

Hi everyone,

I’m a music composer deeply passionate about storytelling through sound. Inspired by composers like Ludwig Göransson, Hans Zimmer, and Trent Reznor, I’ve recently started focusing on film music — especially creating emotional, cinematic atmospheres that support and enhance visual narratives.

I'm currently looking to collaborate with filmmakers, writers, and creatives working on short films or indie projects. My goal is to gain experience, grow as a film composer, and learn through real collaborations.

If you’re working on a short film, teaser, proof of concept, or any visual project that needs original music, I’d love to connect. I’m open to unpaid or low-budget projects — this is all about learning, building, and creating meaningful work together.

I love your approach and the inspiration you’re drawing from some incredible composers, your passion really comes through.

Since you’re looking to connect and collaborate with filmmakers here on Stage 32, I’d recommend updating your profile image to a real photo of yourself. It helps others feel more connected to you and builds trust when creatives are deciding who to bring onto their team. Looking forward to seeing where your composing journey takes you!
