Good. This is by far the most influential presentation about actual music composing. Thank you.

#5: know when to NOT underscore/illustrate a scene at all - sometimes the most effective music is no music

Only man on Youtube I don't watch with double speed. 😅👍 Brillant filmic look and GREAT editing / postproduction of the clip. Fun to watch.

Thanks for this! Just a suggestion, it would be great that you add the sound that you are describing when you say it. Example: when you say staccato, add a staccato strings sound. Cheers!

Very nice and useful info, but I thought this was about habits. Let me explain, a habit is "a settled or regular tendency or practice, especially one that is hard to give up" (Oxford Languages), in other words, a habit is a frequent and recurrent action that wouldn't have a defined end by itself. For example, being fit is not a habit, getting fit is the result of the habit of exercising 1 hour everyday.

So having, knowing or learning something are not exactly a habits. Having a system is not a habit, compose with your system everyday for X amount of hours would be; know your cliches is not a habit, analysing 1 track of film music everyday would be; learn film scoring is kind of the closest one, but yet something like study/read about film scoring every day for X amount of hours or something among those lines would be better, otherwise is just a goal, not a habit.

That being said, interesting information.

One more thing I learned recently is to listen very well to the temp track and to take it very seriously. Very sad the recent film maker I worked with really wanted me to sound exactly like the temp. I dicided not to work with him, I don't to do a copy paste in my work.

Talking about your compositions for Netflix, Amazon, etc., with a jaded air does not make you a better professional. Talking fast with a lot of noise, either.
Fortunately, there are more serious YouTube channels.
