One of the biggest challenges facing music composers and producers is getting paid for their work. Royalties are ever-dwindling as music buyers move from physical ownership of music to streaming services. However, there is still a market that hundreds of music producers use to make a living: production music. TV and film industries are always hungry for fresh, innovative music. This book guides you through the entire process of writing production music - from getting ideas for your first track to the tricks and tropes unique to this genre - and includes advice on where to send your completed work and how you can expect to be paid. Dr Michael Hewitt is a composer, lecturer and writer with over 15 years' experience writing production music. His music has been placed all over the world in a wide variety of productions, from BBC nature documentaries to The Oprah Winfrey Show. | The Essential Guide To Writing And Selling Production Music by Michael Hewitt, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
