Rescoring is a fantastic hobby, and can be excellent practice for aspiring composers and artists. The issue arises that there is a lack of film that retains foley and dialogue, but has no soundtrack. Anybody can mute a scene, but the real skill in rescoring is where the music enhances what is happening and sounding on screen, not completely subverting it.

We welcome any sort of visual media that is typically accompanied by a soundtrack. Please keep in mind that the majority of works posted are likely to be scenes from popular movies, and therefore, have underlying legal issues surrounding the commercialization of them. Please do not try and profit off of them, and act honestly.

Good content is:

Resources for the aspiring film composer
Scenes that you have already rescored, with the original link in the description; we'd love to see what you've done!
Scenes that you have filmed, and are willing to have scored
Clips ready to be rescored; these have the foley and dialogue intact, but are stripped of their soundtrack.
