    what should u pay for a indie score

    General rule of thumb (and this is really general mind you) is 5% of the total budget. Fact is you will find people who are starting out who are willing to work for very little. You will find 10 - 20k will get you a good composer who has experience and some composers who won't even consider...

    Looking for composer for my Post Apocalyptic short film(no pay)

    You'll find heaps of composers have advertised their services (for Free) in the global ad section. Most composers seem to advertise and then move on so you'll probably have a greater selection if you scroll through the global ads.

So if you're having a hard time coming up with a rate that works does that mean you've been talking numbers already and there is a big gap between your budget and what he wants? So what is your budget? How big is the disparity?

    Why do commercial film clients Always try to underpay?

    I very much agree with Brian. I have no problem with being asked to work cheaply. It's simply upto me to say no but if I get attitude for it then that's just lame and an indication that I'm not dealing with a professional.

    Dissecting movies -- Signs

    Oh man I just love Signs. The acting is sublime and yes it is an alien invasion film but it's more about people than aliens. Also I just love the James Newton Howard score. He's one of my favorites and apparently he wrote the main theme after talking to Night about the film (so way before...
