Acerca de esta escucha
“You don't have to grind 24/7 to be a successful screen music composer, but you do have to be intentional with your time. I'm proud that Steven Melin has fought for this balance at an early age, and he'll show you how you can too. I'm excited for how Family-First Composer will equip you to live the most fulfilling life possible." (Adam Gubman, composer of Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge, producer of This Is Me from The Greatest Showman, and songwriter at Disney Parks Worldwide)
This book is created for you, hardworking father who works at a corporate American job to pay the bills. You long to support your family composing music for film, TV, and video games.

You look forward to the weekends when you can spend time with your family, but you’re usually so exhausted from the work week that this time frustratingly must be used to rest and prepare for the upcoming work week. You have little time for friendships or dates with your wife due to stress at work and general unhappiness. To escape, you love watching TV shows and playing video games, but you rarely find time to enjoy these. You want to help around the house more and attend your kids’ events, but you never have time or energy to spare. You love to read, but have a hard time believing that his situation will ever really change...
You hate the trajectory of your life. Aside from your family, it’s empty. Hollow. You were created to do more with your life. You want the chance to show your family - and the world - that you can support them doing what you love. You just need a guide: someone who has been in your shoes and knows the steps to take to be where you want to be...

Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. He has made a practice of helping people transcend their self-imposed expectations in order to reconnect with a state of innocence from which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, he has learned that being an artist isn’t about your specific output, it’s about your relationship to the world.

Nothing "goes viral". If you think a popular movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today's crowded media environment, you're missing the real story. Each blockbuster has a secret history - of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. In his groundbreaking investigation, Atlantic senior editor Derek Thompson uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like.

Edit Better was made for video editors who consider themselves advanced hobbyists or growth-minded professionals, artists who know that the tools of editing matter far less than the knowledge of how to use those tools powerfully. This audiobook does not illuminate the workings of Avid, Final Cut, or Premiere, and is not a meditation on film editing. What it is: a provocative, wide-ranging collection of strategies and tactics for the creative application of TV and video editing, no matter your editing tools.

Good Overview/Summary
Great overview of the “proven path.” He points you in the direction of resources to help more. I expected more length and detail of some of the steps taken, such as in the business and marketing areas. But it definitely helped me get my feet wet and thinking about all aspects of a music composition business. Keep up the great work, Steve!

Microphone is awful, I want my money back
the narration of this is absolutely horrible and unlistenable he has his mic set to turn off and on based on when it's picks up something. the result is horrible horrible static. made worse by the speaker taking huge pauses between every little point instead of talking in a normal fashion how anyone can listen to this is beyond me.

Got bored too much non composer stuff
More of a feel good family and faith at least first few chapters and quickly got bored. I was expecting more about, you know, composer stuff and not about how family comes first, etc. which is already a given, duh. Too much fluff, not enough solid. Pass. Waste of time.
