Savina Ciaramella

Senior Director of Music

Savina began her career at Walt Disney Records in A&R, earning 15 RIAA-certified gold, platinum, and diamond awards for iconic soundtracks such as Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, Mulan, and Tarzan. After departing Disney, she joined the leadership team at the American Federation of Musicians’ National Headquarters, where she led the Electronic Media Services Division. She rapidly expanded the video game department by establishing a widely supported recording agreement, which increased musicians’ wages and benefits tenfold in her first year, while also creating opportunities for composers and game companies to record locally. After leaving the union, she pivoted back to production as the marketing liaison and score recording producer for George Lucas’s state-of-the-art facility, Skywalker Sound, where she procured work and managed score recording sessions featuring the Skywalker Symphony Orchestra. She later launched and managed a thriving music department at Formosa Interactive.


Savina has produced music and BTS videos for first-party platform holders such as Sony Interactive Entertainment, Xbox Game Studios, and Nintendo, as well as major publishers including Riot Games, Epic Games, Activision, Blizzard Entertainment, Ubisoft, Tencent Games, Netflix Games, NetEase, Amazon Games, Scopely, and Wizards of the Coast. She has contributed to AAA game franchises such as Call of Duty, Halo, League of Legends, Assassin’s Creed, Age of Empires, God of War, Dungeons & Dragons, Magic: The Gathering, Towerborne, Fortnite, Squid Game: Unleashed, Microsoft Flight Simulator, World of Warcraft, StarCraft, Diablo, and Honor of Kings. She has collaborated with renowned composers such as Hans Zimmer, Danny Elfman, Volker Bertelmann, Alexandre Desplat, Ramin Djawadi, Brian Tyler, and many more, and has recorded award-winning scores with premier orchestras and choirs around the world.


Savina currently serves as Senior Director of Music at Sound Lab, a Keywords Studio, Executive Director of the Game Audio Network Guild (G.A.N.G.), Co-Producer of the G.A.N.G. Awards, Editor-in-Chief of The Audio Source Magazine, and is a member of the video game committee of the Society of Composers and Lyricists (SCL). She is a frequent speaker at industry events and academic institutions, including the Game Developers Conference (GDC), GameSoundCon, USC, NYU, Berklee College of Music, and BIG Festival. She is a member of the Game Audio Network Guild (G.A.N.G.), Society of Composers and Lyricists (SCL), and Women Industry Network (WIN).


Her career reflects a deep commitment to supporting composers, musicians, publishers, and developers, while advancing the artistry and business of interactive music and sound throughout the global games industry.
