My name is Robbie Teehan, and I'm here at FAI with my singer-songwriter project, Gentle Sparrow (hope to run into you!).

I'm also a film and TV composer with 14 years experience, and, since 2020, the founder and CEO of The Pro Composer.

I help composers get hired to score films, TV shows, and video games by helping them develop their career vision and musical approach and training them on industry marketing strategies.

If you're an artist interested in the film and TV world, you're probably familiar with sync licensing; maybe you're working with a publisher or sync agent, or directly with music supervisors, to get your catalogue placed.

 But there's another world available to artists - a potentially very lucrative one - in composing the custom instrumental score.  

Think John Williams or Hans Zimmer - but these days, directors are often looking for new and interesting voices, so you don't need to be classically-trained -   you can get hired to bring your personal style into an instrumental score. 

But you do need to know the tech workflows and how to build relationships with filmmakers. 

This is something I help composers figure out so they can start getting hired and making money scoring films.
 
There's a bit of a learning curve to the industry, so I created a free Facebook community with tons of free resources including weekly livestreams with industry experts (click to join).

Feel free to join and start getting acquainted with the methods and strategies along with over 5000 professional and aspiring professional composers from around the world.

If you're serious about scoring and want a free assessment of your portfolio, please click here to book a free zoom consultation.

Finally - here is a free 1-hour seminar I hosted that explains what you need to do to find work as a media composer in 2024:

I hope you have a great conference and I look forward to seeing you in the Facebook community!
