    score How Do You Find Composers?

    Random suggestion: If you're looking for young, talented composers, go to the IMDb page for a movie or show whose score you like, and contact the *additional music composers.* They're young, they're hungry, you already like their work, and they're waaaaay cheaper than the person with the main...

    Directors: How to speak to your composers

    Excellent point. That's exactly why I almost never agree to let any music that I wrote during the script stage in to the film (any recordings, I mean…obviously the ideas generated during the script stage will hopefully inform the actual score).

    Directors: How to speak to your composers

    Directors: How to speak to your composers

    Chesseandachallenge (great name, btw), what browser are you on? I tested my link and it's looking good. There is a video directly underneath the audio player for the podcast, but you should be seeing a box with an audio player. I linked to the page so that the the correct episode is immediately...

    Directors: How to speak to your composers

    Hi all, First "real" post here. I'm a composer, and I have a podcast with three other guys (two of which are other composers) about filmscoring. In one particular episode, we hit upon what I think is pretty valuable information for filmmakers: first, how one might go about getting in to film...
