About the MCM
With a focus on young cinematographic creation and musical composition for screen, the artistic policy of the Festival international Music & Cinema Marseille (MCM) is now unique in Europe. Since its inception in 1999, the festival has evolved into a must-attend event for both national and international professionals, setting a standard for musical composition in visual media.
With 300 films presented each year, the MCM brings together over 1,000 professionals and 25,000 attendees, offering original screenings, engaging encounters, and exceptional musical performances accessible to all audiences.
The festival has four main focuses:
- Support young creators
- Promote cultural diversity through international programs
- Train talents and support them in their creative process
- Create an image education program
"2022: Music & Cinema is now in Marseillais"
The Alcimé Association
Through different projects taking place at local, national and international levels, the Alcimé association aims to promote both cinematographic creation and musical composition for screen to their full diversity and richness.
In order to do so, Alcimé has been working developing four main skills since its creation in1999.
The organization and realization of Music & Cinema - Festival International du Film à Marseille which was, until 2021, Festival International du Film à Aubagne.
Setting up, every year, several projets, meetings and calls for applications in order to help artists such as directors and composers. These plans include a Masterclass for composition, two calls for scenarios (SiRAR and Espace Kiosque), the European Market for film composition, the Music Grant for Original Score, InMics Composers Lab, Kinoscore, and more.
Developing different projects for secondary education students such as screenings and workshops and various cultural projects. The Alcimé association also works on the creation of a Master’s degree for film scoring.
Promoting cultural diversity through the international Third Character program, the exchange of international cinematographic programs and the creation of movie concerts. All these activities being built with the strong intention of being inclusive and making culture accessible to all.
