Summary
FAQs
How long does it take to compose custom music for my project?
The timeline varies depending on your project's length and complexity. A short film score might take 2-3 weeks, while a feature film could require 6-8 weeks or more. After our initial consultation and reviewing your specific needs, I can provide a more accurate timeline. The key factors that affect the duration include the total minutes of music needed, complexity of arrangements, and number of revision rounds.
What do you need from me to get started?
To begin creating your perfect soundtrack, I'll need: -Your final edited video (or a locked cut as close to final as possible) -Brief description of your project and its goals -Examples of music styles/references you like -Key emotional moments or scenes that need special musical attention -Project timeline and delivery deadlines -Any technical specifications for delivery
What about licensing and rights to the music?
I provide clear, straightforward licensing terms for all my compositions. Typically, you receive full usage rights for your specific project, with terms clearly outlined in our agreement. If you need specific rights or have unique requirements, we can discuss these during our initial consultation to ensure you have the freedom to use the music as needed.
Can you match a specific style or reference track?
While I can't create exact copies of existing music, I can certainly compose original music that captures the same emotional impact, energy, and style you love from your reference tracks. I'll work closely with you to understand what specific elements you appreciate from your references and incorporate those influences into a unique composition that serves your project while maintaining originality.
What if I need revisions to the music?
My process includes up to three rounds of revisions to ensure your complete satisfaction. During each revision round, you can provide specific feedback about any aspects that need adjustment – whether it's emotional intensity, timing, instrumental choices, or mix balance. I believe in open communication and will work with you until the music perfectly matches your vision.
