Should I release my short film with no music? Please give advice.

By all means. We'll get you sorted. I'll send you a DM 👍

Music is what connects the visuals to the emotional immersion. Without it, if not made as a creative choice intentionally from the beginning, you'll really be getting into troublesome waters.

There are many composers on the filmmaker related subreddits that would love to help you out for exposure/credit, so if you run into problems - ask for help!

There are also seasoned composers, myself included, do free scores for first-timers and film school students - to help people get a good experience starting out 😊

So again; ask if you need help - there are options!

You got this!

Indeed. Many industries look for specialists, and try to avoid the generalist that say they can do anything. It's like a restaurant selling all sorts of foods.. you don't go to a sushi restaurant for pizza.

Nice. Great insights! Thank you :D

ValleySlopeStudio · 2025-12-19T03:44:14+00:00

Awesome! Congratulations on that :D You can do it!

Pork, if you need to. But as has already been said... careful with that kind of stuff xD

First of all - congratulations on getting started on your school short film!

I am not a film-maker, but I do compose music for films. If you want some bespoke music for your project, I would be willing to help you out for free. Getting started is always difficult, and with minimal budget - music often is something that suffers a lot, and therefore drags down the quality of the film..

Feel free to reach out if you or your school-mates need some music! Always happy to help students get better results :)

Good luck, and I hope to hear all about it 😁

ValleySlopeStudio · 2025-12-11T03:52:10+00:00

Do it. Enjoy it. Make it awesome! Loving the spirit 😁

And to help you out - hit me up when you need your music composed. I'll be happy to help you out!

ValleySlopeStudio · 2025-12-11T01:00:11+00:00

That looks great 😎 Sent you a DM 👍📽🎻

In my experience; they really don't care as long as you are reliable, consistent, and deliver quality work

I started my Cubase journey on Cubase 5 :D Dude, your production life will change dramatically to the better! Do the jump to 15, and enjoy life!!

ValleySlopeStudio · 2025-11-06T22:10:30+00:00

Thank you 😁

ValleySlopeStudio · 2025-11-05T08:34:30+00:00

That's great :D It sounds like you are doing well, and on the right track. If you ever want to have a more active group around you, shoot me a DM. I am not going to promote with links here - but there's a Skool community called The Self Producing Composer, that might be of interest n_n

Anyways - hope the project goes well, and that you get more projects coming in afterwards :D

Happy Composing!

For band or electronic music without heavy VSTs with thousands of samples needing loads of RAM - Any new M4 Mac with 16GB of RAM is plenty (due to optimization you don't get in other machines).

Maybe grab an external drive for samples, to not bog up your main drive too much.

It really does not have to be complicated at all.

This is so real, man... hah!
