Bryan Michael Cox is a dope producer, but I will have to disagree with him 100% on this point. Breaking into film composing is 100 times harder than trying to break into the record world. There are tens of thousands of cats trying to break into the film composing world every year. The reason why you rarely hear of new composers gives testament as how difficult it is to break into that business. Most film composers have to break into the pop world before they can even dream of getting a job scoring films. Just look at Hans Zimmer and Danny Elfman, both are from 80’s pop bands.
WOW this was great info!
One thing I can’t do is disagree with the person that’s actually making it happen in life. I feel that it is tough to get recognized when your first approaching the industry regardless of how long you’ve been producing music and especially with me being a girl. I’ve been wondering if producers have been getting recognized through movies or jingles and now I know! I’ll be on Google all night to find my resources. THANKS
I think he might of meant to put that focus on doing TV music. It’s definitely easier to get a check nowadays for a commercial/tv show than an album.
