Ten Tips for Getting Into the Composing Game

2 February 2010

No clue on how to get into this crazy composing game?

Here’s an article on Ten Tips for Getting Into the Composing Game I wrote for the fabulous Scorecast Online site.

I talk about finding your niche, networking and relationships, pitching and persistence, things that I’ve experienced and learned from ‘Getting the Gig’ – January’s topic on that site.

Any tips of your own? Do leave a comment on Scorecast Online or here. We’re all much stronger when we join forces and share knowledge :-) .

Look forward to hearing from you.

As I just told a group of young chaps in on work experience: “the first bite is with the eye”. If a client walks in to your studio and it’s clean and comfortable then you’ve already got them on your side.

Very interesting reading your 10 (or nine!) tips, Heather. Especially for someone like me who has only recently started out in this crazy business!

Think I will link to them from my new blog.

Cheers!

Heather, although a life-long pro musician, have decided it was time I started to at least try and create my own music instead of playing others’. Your “Tips” have been the best guideline I found, so a big thanks for the career guidance
