Hi, I’m Geoffrey B. Schumann. I’m a BMI PRO–registered composer and IMDB–credited soundtrack artist who transitioned fully into composition in 2020 after more than four decades as a performer. I bring synesthetic perception and a storyteller’s instinct to music, shaping how sound serves narrative, character, and dramatic arc. I’m currently developing ProgCore Fantasy: The Dark Age of Theer, a five-act electronic orchestral suite designed for adaptive use across multimedia, and I created Dicesongs, an adaptive music ecosystem for immersive fantasy media and streaming. I love collaborating with creators to craft themes, textures, and motifs that evolve with a story and its world.

    BlueBoxRPG – Themes, Ambient Music, and Visual Media Support (2022–2023)

    Composer • Sound Designer • Music Sponsor • After Effects Editor

    BlueBoxRPG was a Twitch streaming channel focused on narrative tabletop shows and collaborative storytelling. I created original opening themes, ambient layers, and scene-specific cues for multiple series on the platform.

    I also served as the channel’s music sponsor, providing ongoing custom tracks that fit the creator’s tone and pacing.

    In addition to composing, I edited several intro videos using Envato motion templates, Adobe After Effects, and custom graphic elements. The channel’s creator and I shared a similar visual taste, which made it easy to match motion, energy, and thematic direction for each production.
