New in this competition category. Create your original composition in the style of:

EXPERIMENTAL or SYNTH music.

Put all your unconventional ideas and sounds to use and compose music for this 3-minute long film sequence.
“Wandering” is a visually appealing short sci-fi film by long-time animator and visionary Alexander Krasnov. This is an original, distinct and singular style of animation containing a mix of tangible and abstract elements that interweave through different settings and colour contrasts.
Feel free to enrich this animation with sound design. However, this is not a requirement for your composition – if you want, you can choose a purely compositional path and focus on the music alone.
The animation that has been specially prepared for all contestants offers plenty of scope for your experimental musical ideas.
Embark on a journey brimming with offbeat artistic imagery and enrich this category’s animated visuals with your music.
