Composer / Musician

This role is for composers and musicians interested in creating original music for Five Nights at Freddy's: Follow Me.

Music will play an important role in establishing the atmosphere of the game. Because the story follows Freddy Fazbear's Pizza while it is still open and operating, the soundtrack will need to cover considerably more than horror.

Some scenes may be energetic, comfortable, funny, emotional, unsettling, or completely ordinary before the story begins moving into darker territory.

Music may be needed for character moments, exploration, everyday restaurant scenes, emotional sequences, suspense, horror, major story events, chapter-specific moments, and other situations throughout the game.

Certain characters, locations, or ideas may also have their own recurring musical themes or motifs that develop alongside the story.

The game's 1985 setting may influence portions of the soundtrack, particularly music associated with Freddy Fazbear's Pizza itself. However, the entire soundtrack does not need to imitate 1980s music simply because the story takes place during that period.

Some tracks may also exist within the world itself, such as music heard from arcade machines, restaurant speakers, advertisements, performances, or other sources characters can actually hear.

We're looking for composers who can create music that supports a scene without overwhelming it. Since Follow Me is heavily focused on dialogue and character interaction, much of the soundtrack will need to comfortably sit underneath conversations while still establishing a recognizable mood.

You do not need to be able to compose every possible style. Multiple musicians may be selected, and different composers may work on different parts of the soundtrack depending on their strengths.

Follow Me is being developed in chapters, so music will be created gradually as the game develops. You will not be expected to produce an entire soundtrack immediately.

Please provide examples of music you've created.

Original soundtracks, game music, instrumentals, character themes, ambient pieces, personal projects, or other existing compositions are all welcome.

Examples demonstrating atmosphere, emotional storytelling, suspense, horror, or music suitable for playing underneath dialogue are particularly useful.

You do not need to compose a new track specifically for your application.

When applying, feel free to mention the styles you are most comfortable creating and which areas of the soundtrack you'd be most interested in working on.
