Film soundtracking

calla [Edit] [Delete] 3 replies 14:38, 1 September '08

This may sound really daft, but this is something I've always wanted to do. I've tried to do a few things for friends but they never seem to get past the talking about it stage. Has anyone got any pointers for some folks who might be a bit more serious?

cheers

    It seems to be just a matter of telling everyone you know about it. It's the only thing that's worked for me. Eventually, someone actually wants you to do something, and they can't pay you, obviously. But then you've got a sort of showreel.

    Repeat until fail.

    ended up doing a few short film soundtracks as part of a student film-makers society. It worked a treat cuz the members were all dead enthusiastic about making their films. Maybe there's such a society (student or otherwise) near you that might be of some assistance to you?

    That's probably not much help. But here's a pointless anecdote - The last film said friend worked on was partly edited by Ben from Fuck Buttons. True story.
