A Great Book That Gives New Meaning to "Must-Have"

The key to this book lies not only in the title but the subtitle as well: "An Introduction to the People, Problems, and Psychology of the Film Music Business. Other possible titles, though already used, could also fit: "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Being a Film Composer but were Afraid to Ask," or "Film Composing for the Rest of Us." This book fills a gap that no other book has filled to date and does the job so thoroughly, it may just be the final word on the day-to-day practicalities of being a film composer.

Can you work as a film composer without a college education? How much do you expect to earn per year as a film and television composer? Can you live - or more accurately - survive on that amount? Do you know how to break down the costs of doing a score into fees and hard costs? How many films would you have to score per year just to get by? And this is just the first two chapters.

Richard Bellis has been known point out that he may not be a "household word" in the music business, but he may showing some humility here, because for certain, he is a household word in the film music business and highly respected at that. (See his credentials above.) He also knows his audience, and identifies that there are the eight or so A-list composers who make millions of dollars, the next level down in the six-figure category, and finally the remaining 90 per cent - composers working on movies for television, games, TV series, independent features, documentaries, commercials, and so on. That's us, folks. That's who this book is for, the emerging composer, hopefully on his or her way to even bigger and better things down the film music road.

Chapter 3 is about the most sought-after knowledge, "Getting Work." Here, and elsewhere in the book, Bellis paints a very realistic portrait of how things work - or don't work - when it comes to actually getting work. It is best summed up in his statement, "This is a buyers market." And this is typical of the knowledge that Bellis imparts on the reader throughout the book - it's a very no-nonsense approach which not only deals with the difficulties, but with the inequities of landing the gig. He describes the "randomness" of the business which can work in your favor or against it, but in either case, you should not be discouraged from pursuing the goal, better put in his statement, "When you realize that everything good comes `out of left field,' your job is to go to the ballpark every day."

Bellis goes on to cover Spotting, the Writing Process, Recording and Podium Procedure, Delivery and the Dub, and fills in some of the blanks with Random Thoughts. As if that weren't enough, he wraps things up with great stories from other talented composers in the business, each filled with words of wisdom, sometimes in the form of truly hilarious experiences.

I have all the other books - great books - on the topic of film music. This one is a real gem. In addition to the great information it provides, it's written in a nice, easy style filled with wit and touches of wry humor. Because of that, it's more like a special treat - an invitation to hang out with Richard Bellis over a beer and discuss the film music biz. If you're an emerging composer trying to fill in a lot of the blanks, this book is a must-have. If you're an established composer trying to get a better handle on the biz, this book is a must-have. And if you're simply curious about the film music business and want a glimpse into how it all works, this book is, well you guessed it - it's a must-have. (But you can't have my copy, because I won't let it out of my sight!) Kudos to Bellis for even thinking of writing this highly valuable book.

A very practical and helpful book

I was very fortunate to be able to study film scoring with Richard Bellis at USC back in the early 1990's, and he was a wonderful teacher. I learned a great deal from him in those classes. So I was thrilled to discover that he had taken his vast knowledge of the film scoring industry and had written a book about it.

I've just finished the book, and I have to say it's been one of the most practical and helpful books of its kind that I've ever read -- and I've read MANY such books over the years. I'm having a major recording session for a film score in just a month, and reading this book was enormously helpful to me in preparing for the session.

While most books on film music focus either on interviews with famous film composers, OR, focus on the very technical side of writing music for film, Richard's book is unique in that it gives you all the practical, nuts-and-bolts things you need to know about being a film composer -- something that all of the other film music books seem to lack. The information in this book is presented in an honest, practical, and well organized way, and every page of it is helpful in some way -- so be prepared to highlight a lot of the text! :)

I highly recommend this book to anyone involved in film scoring. No matter what level of experience you may already have in this field, I guarantee that you will gain a number of valuable insights by reading this book.

Thanks, Richard, for having written such a practical and helpful book!

THANK YOU RICHARD BELLIS!

The music business is a tough one to break into, even for those that know what they are doing. Narrowing that down to film composition is even more difficult. I read this book cover to cover in one day because I found it absolutely fascinating. Anyone who is even thinking about a career in this industry should get a copy immediately.

Not only does Richard Bellis tell us the REAL DEAL of what goes on in the industry but even helps with time management, contracts and what is REALLY expected by the pros and does so in a light-hearted and enjoyable way. There is nothing left uncovered on the business side of the business.

By all means, learn all you can about composition, creativity, sound and recording. It is essential. But without this knowledge and insight, you'll have a tough time getting in the door!
