HUMTOO is a (free) online community connecting content creators and music makers across the globe. HUMTOO operates a project marketplace for projects in search of music, as well as a user generated production music library.

HUMTOO is also running HUMFEST - a new project development initiative for the best short film uploaded on HUMTOO in search of music, and also for the best music pitched for that short film.

HUMTOO will give AU$1000/US$650/£450 to the best short film uploaded to the site as a project in search of music. HUMTOO will also give the same amount to the music maker who wins that project. This money will help you to continue making great short films and great music!
