A/V Swap 2009
Houston, Texas

Creative filmmakers submit a short movie without a soundtrack and musicians submit a soundtrack without a movie.

We’ll play matchmaker and trade each film and soundtrack.

Each musician will receive a film and every filmmaker a soundtrack.

Then you make a new composition to go with your movie or song. It’s that easy!
