Looking for a track for a TV Pilot
Hi all! I am looking to film a theme opener for a TV pilot soon and am in need of a song for it. I have this envision for something along the lines of HBOs "The Newsroom" but a bit more upbeat, not as serious, etc etc. I am looking for about 3 minutes worth of music.

Great article Bryan, an original score should never be an afterthought. I personally like when a director can provide a temp score with what they have in their head, but be open to an original interpretation.
Thank you DC. Temp scores are a love/hate process for film composers. It really helps the composers understand what the director really wants, but also limits the composer's creativity if they have to sound exactly like the temp score. In the end, it is the director's film.

Expand commentJim, I can understand where you are coming from. Finding films in post production helps. What works for me is establishing a network of friends, and growing that network on a daily basis. If you are involved in your network as a fan and supporter, and establish communication, they will keep seeing your face and name, which is a good thing. Then when they are working on a new movie, your name my pop up in a conversation, or in their head. It is all about being in the right place at the right time. Also, directors tend to look for the composer.
