Hi, please ask all my colleagues for advice. In Italy, especially in Rome, the post-production, sound design, and composition sectors have long been a closed circle, with only the same, recommended people working there. I'm an excellent composer with years of experience and some credits. I have my own recording and post-production studio and can solve any sound and Foley-related problem. As a sound engineer, I even accomplish impossible tasks!
I also work very well remotely for America, France, China, Germany, and Spain. I'm an experienced professional and can create any type of music you prefer.
I know it's important to have credits in this field, which is why I'm willing to work at a very negotiable rate, to introduce myself to new directors and to expand my portfolio. I'm looking for advice on finding remote work abroad, as it's almost impossible to find in Italy. Thank you.

Jonny Jorayo Thank you for sharing your experience, it’s clear you have an impressive skill set and a lot of versatility. I understand how challenging it can be to break into new markets, especially in industries with tightly-knit local networks. From my experience, finding remote work abroad often comes down to consistently showcasing your work and connecting directly with directors and production teams. Having a strong portfolio or demo reel that highlights your range in sound design, Foley, and composition is key, as it allows potential collaborators to see exactly what you can do. Smaller or indie productions are often more open to remote collaboration, which can lead to valuable credits and help expand your international reputation.

Jonny Jorayo You're in a very competitive area, globally as well as locally. So understand that it takes some time and commitment to building your career. Network as much as possible with your local people. Reach out to them and remind them you are around and available - eventually someone will take a chance on you. When they do, make sure you do your absolute best work without any complaint, and they will remember you well. As Cyrus Sales says, work with smaller productions as much as possible and build that portfolio. Do your best for them as well, as they too will remember you and mention you to other productions.
