One of the tracks we break down inside the course. Composed, mixed, and mastered by me.
Breathing, preparation, timpani tracks, dynamics, delivering first tracks, client feedback, organizing track sessions, and middleware. The full toolkit, end to end.
Adventure, sci-fi, military, horror - plus how to write a memorable RPG main theme and a horror main theme that sticks.
Score an actual cutscene from Chorus (kindly provided by Fish Labs). Plus triggers, single tracks, loops with intros, outros, and layers - we write an RPG loop, a boss-battle loop, and military-shooter menu tracks together.
Contracts, budget planning, NDAs, scheduling projects, track organization, and finding work in the industry.
"Alex's teaching is outstanding and I learned a lot about video game music based on his vast knowledge and experience in the field. I really enjoyed his approach and great examples of writing in-game music. The seamless loop technique is the best I have ever seen."
Carlos Dorn · Music Composer & Sound Designer
"Alex Pfeffer's Video Game Music Course is one of the easiest ways into the video game music industry."
Kevin Kuschel · Music Composer & Educator
"I completed the course. It has been amazing!"
Zahari Schtonov · Music Composer
I've spent 20+ years writing video game scores and trailer music - shipping music for Crysis 2, Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, and trailers for Pacific Rim and Harry Potter. I've collaborated with Mick Gordon and contributed to leading sample libraries. Game Music Conquerors is everything I'd want a younger version of me to know about scoring games.
