Are you a composer, producer, artist or songwriter with experience - or a strong interest - in creating music for video games? 

We're seeking applications for Screen SongHubs 2026, a unique three-day collaborative camp that will see composers, songwriters and producers develop original music and scores to creative briefs for forthcoming Sony Interactive Entertainment titles.

Over three days at Sydney’s Church Street Studios, the camp will be curated by Duncan Smith, Head of Music at Sony Interactive Entertainment Europe. Duncan leads the team responsible for music across PlayStation Studios' award-winning games and global campaigns, with credits spanning titles including God of War, Horizon Forbidden West, Gran Turismo, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and more.
