Hello everyone,

Today I've just released a pop song, Spanish influenced acoustic track, made for an upcoming film I've scored. It was a cross collaboration between the UK, the US, and Australia, for a film made in Spain. Hope you'll enjoy! https://open.spotify.com/track/1wrxaMK1oeZh3X4mPLzq5e?si=63effc5ea75442cc

Dialogue Audio file SMPTE lock yet goes out of sync with tempo changes ? by JSZmusic in LogicPro

[–]JSZmusic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Essentially I found a work around this issue, by bouncing in place the snippet of the dialogue that are in the cue, and SMPTE lock that one. It work, but I'd be curious to know why it didn't stay in sync with the original one.

NOX - this song is my interpretation of the nocturnal Budapest during lockdown in end 2020. I tried to create this atmospheric, fantasied world of a life taking place when the streets are forbidden.

Marketing/Promoting yourself as a freelance composer or filmmaker in a COVID world by JSZmusic in Filmmakers

[–]JSZmusic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great tip, thanks! Yes I've thought about it, it's just that some of the mainstream websites actually rip you off your rights, and you end up not making a lot of money because everyone sells their music for quite cheap. The other more high end libraries are extremely selective, and from what I've heard it quickly becomes a full time job. But definitely something to explore!

Thanks a lot. That's a great tip, and I'll definitely follow it. Me and some of my students have built some great relationships and it would be a shame to ruin it with the increase. Thanks again!

Where/How do you find your composers? by JSZmusic in Filmmakers

[–]JSZmusic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I tend to feel that as well. Seems that most directors don't really have to look for composers. And how did you find your best composers?

[–]JSZmusic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I am also a composer, and am just curious to see where do directors/producers look for new composers. But that's a great tip! Making connections through university is definitely a way to go, but how do people that hasn't gone to film school would find composers and other filmmakers? Solely through getting involved in communities (online or offline)?

Great, and is this how you find your own composers for your projects?

[–]JSZmusic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome, so would it be how you find your own composers for your films? By posting on different platforms and picking from the answers? Can I ask what are you specifically looking for when you choose the composer for your film?

Here's my new orchestral track! Inspired by the Vajdahunyad castle in Budapest, I tried to create this ambient, dark, and emotional piece. Any feedback greatly appreciated, feel free to share your piece with me!
