You have to have passion for both. It amazes me how many "film composers" cannot name for me their...
Hey Josh!
Do whatever you can, whether it is rescoring already scored scenes or whatever, to get your music out there. You can always go back later and reupload your own stuff from your films that you get hired on. I did the same thing you are do...

Welcome aboard. Nice stuff you are doing.
United we stand! So we've all talked about this forever. How do we put actions to our words? Why is it so hard to organize composers? Everyone else seems to have a guild or association. Any ideas?

- About Me:
- DEANE OGDEN is an award-winning composer who has written the music to over twenty feature films including THE SENSEI, DREAMS ON SPEC, IN THE EYES OF A KILLER, and THE WAY HOME. Also very active in music for television, Deane wrote the orchestral themes for Michael Phelps' record-breaking gold medal run during the 2008 OLYMPIC GAMES, which was the most-viewed event in American television history.
Deane is a top-call session drummer, and has recorded and performed with artists like TINA TURNER, CHRIS CORNELL, SEAL, and RIHANNA, and has appeared on numerous telecasts including THE AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS, THE TONIGHT SHOW WITH JAY LENO, and the GRAMMY AWARDS.
Deane is also the founder and co-leader of the popular SCOREcastOnline.com, a podcast and website dedicated to mentoring emerging film composers worldwide.
Based in Los Angeles, Deane consumes an amazingly unhealthy amount of sugar, and routinely gets dragged out of the studio by his girlfriend to experience sunlight and fresh air, completely against his will and better judgment.

- Well I have added more music now. But none of it compares to your music. Your music is really great. I dont really know the "lingo for what to say about it other than it is breathtaking in production and ingenuity.
Thank you for letting me have a listen to what real music sounds like. :)
