Junior Video Game Music information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Junior Video Game Music Composer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Junior Video Game Music Composer, you need a solid understanding of music theory, composition, and audio production, often supported by a relevant degree or portfolio of work. Familiarity with digital audio workstations (DAWs) like Logic Pro or Ableton Live, and middleware such as FMOD or Wwise, is commonly required. Creativity, teamwork, and the ability to adapt musical styles to fit game narratives are standout soft skills. These abilities ensure the music enhances gameplay experiences and meets project objectives in the collaborative world of game development.

What does a Junior Video Game Music Composer do?

A Junior Video Game Music Composer assists in creating and producing music and soundtracks for video games. They typically work under the supervision of senior composers, helping to compose, arrange, and edit music that enhances gameplay and storytelling. Their tasks can include writing musical themes, producing sound effects, and collaborating with game developers to ensure the music fits the game's mood and pacing. This entry-level role is a great way to gain experience in the video game industry and develop a professional portfolio.

What types of projects and responsibilities can a Junior Video Game Music Composer expect to handle in their first year?

As a Junior Video Game Music Composer, you'll typically support more senior composers by creating short musical cues, sound effects, and background themes under supervision. You'll often be tasked with arranging, editing, and integrating music to fit specific gameplay scenarios, learning to work within technical constraints like file size and loop points. Collaboration is key—you'll regularly interact with game designers, audio programmers, and other members of the audio team to ensure your compositions align with the game's vision. Over time, you may be given more creative freedom and the chance to contribute to larger segments of the soundtrack as you demonstrate skill and reliability.

Job description

WANTED: Creative, fast-moving, sports-obsessed Junior Video Producer to power our exploding lineup of NFL team-focused YouTube shows. This is a full-time role working from the Chat Sports HQ in Dallas, TX. 
Chat Sports has continued to rapidly grow to become a leading sports media brand on YouTube. We kicked off in 2019 with just 3 shows - and now we're at 49 shows and 60 million+ monthly viewers, following the recent launch of 7 NFL shows. Our goal is to inform and entertain - delivering unfiltered sports content for the most passionate fans of each team we cover. If you're applying, dive into our NFL shows here first - get familiar with our vibe. 
We're ramping up for an epic 2026 NFL season and hiring Junior Video Producers ready to jump in and own production for several of our high-audience team-focused NFL shows. You'll handle production for live shows, on-demand videos, post-production, and creating short-form videos for our social media audience. 
** Location: This is in-office only at our Dallas, TX HQ. Weekend and evening hours are non-negotiable during the NFL season. We'll fly in out-of-towners for auditions, but no relocation package is offered. **
The role:
- Run the production desk like a pro for live and on-demand YouTube programming, working with hosts to keep shows electric and on-brand
- Edit short-form clips from full shows for social (YouTube Shorts, TikTok, IG Reels) - bonus points if you're already slicing in CapCut, Premiere, or similar
- Own the full lifecycle: pre-prod (graphics, research, fact-checking), live execution (real-time decisions, audience engagement), post-prod (editing, copy, thumbnails, SEO tweaks, distribution)
- Bring creative heat - pitch bold ideas, spot trending storylines, and help shape content that fans can't scroll past
- Jump on-air when needed to banter with show hosts and keep the audience engaged
You’re the perfect fit if:
- You've got 1-2 years in live production, video journalism, or digital content creation (new grads with relevant internships, student media, or personal channels get strong consideration)
- You're tech-fluent: Windows/Mac, Google Workspace/Microsoft Office, Dropbox, video editing tools, and quick to learn new software
- You understand SEO basics: titles, tags, descriptions, thumbnails that actually drive audience and watch time
- You've managed or grown social/video content (YouTube, Facebook, TikTok) with an eye for what blows up engagement
- NFL knowledge runs deep (bonus for NBA/college football savvy) - you live for rosters, offseason moves, and game drama
- You're creative, adaptable, quick on your feet, and thrive in fast-paced chaos with tight deadlines
- Communication is sharp, you're proactive about leveling up skills, and you advocate hard for what the audience wants
- Organized, reliable, positive energy, and ready to grind weekends/evenings during football season
What you get:
- Be at the forefront of redefining sports media - grow huge channels, shape narratives, and turn fan passion into your career
- Competitive salary + full benefits (health, dental, vision, 401k, generous PTO)
- Daily team lunches on us - because nobody creates top sports content on an empty stomach
- A group of co-workers that celebrates big wins, big takes, and big personalities in a high-energy, collaborative HQ
Submit your resume and a killer cover letter (tell us why you're built for NFL chaos at Chat Sports), plus:
- Links to your best video work (edits, shorts, full productions, social posts)
- Any relevant social handles or portfolios
Apply right here in this post. Expect a practical interview process with sample tasks to prove you can produce, edit, and think like a fan-first creator.
