    WANTING OVERLYOPINIONATED PEOPLES OPINION FOR ONCE!

    I think you need to think of this from a licensing point of view. If you're creating melodies for people then you need to set the prices where it makes sense for your to lose rights or you take a % of the finished product as well as a right to push the product. Same thing for the vocal tags...

    Well, there are a lot of different variables to consider. Life span and age of the Woodchuck, strength of teeth and whether are not it's hunting season :) I'd assume however much would the woodchuck could handle if it could chuck wood

    Nice, but false premise, wording is a bit misleading the total 30 is still there. $30 - $25 = $5 $5 – 3 to the men = 2 leftover to the bellhop 2 + 3 +25 = $30

    Profiting from Free releases You know that's really hard to discern as it would depend on how smart that artist and his marketing/management and consulting team is. There are a lot of ways to get paid from FREE downloads. For a long time artists where working on revenue sharing deals with...

    Passion Vs. Product

    I love audio in general so there isn't a project I pick up that I don't love doing regardless of how complex or simplistic it is

    It is what it is “just an argument”. I wouldn't say there is a need to spend a lot of money on hardware, but there are definitely some units that have a specific sound that are still worth investing (mostly preamps and processing units) In terms of arrangement, instruments.... etc I don't...

    I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Do you mean tool(s) am I using the most or what companies are paying me more money for sound design? Or am I just completely lost heh

    The best thing to do is be yourself. If you're not a good composer, graphic artists or mixing engineer... then don't pretend to be. Bring value to the person you are trying to connect with. People are always wanting something → Placements, advice, a listening ear with nothing to give in return...

    It's really no different from landing any other music/production based gig. The only thing that changes is the product.

    This doesn't surprise me one bit

    I had 2 labels under contract for seo that purchased themselves out of it because they found a cheaper alternative. They too were slapped and I got an email from them last week asking if I'd still be willing to help them with their Seo...
