Video Game Career: Score Composer

Written by Sarah Ward @ 2:39 pm on June 30, 2010  

There is much that can be said for doing what you love. As they say, if you do what you love, you never work a day in your life.

For people who would love nothing more than to enjoy a profitable career in the video game industry, there are available jobs other than just programmers, game testers, and computer animators. After all, what would Super Mario Bros. be without the music?

One of the most popular video games of all time, the music for Super Mario Bros. was penned by Japanese composer Koji Kondo who has been on Nintendo’s payroll since 1984. Talk about job security!

Since video games have become mini-movies, no video game is complete without a music score. Music professionals adept in composition and arranging can enjoy careers with video game companies writing video game theme songs. Through a music or composition degree, you can develop the music skills necessary to have your compositions be immortalized in video game history like the Super Mario Bros. theme!
