About Songwriting, Lyrics & Film Music lessons
Writing a song means thinking about melody, harmony, lyrics and structure at the same time. Many people start with a chorus or chord progression, but the real work is taking that idea to a finished song. In lyric writing, prosody, the fit between words and melody, matters a lot.
Film and game music is a separate discipline: music serves the emotion and timing of a scene, and orchestration and arrangement come to the front. Recorded courses teach the methods, and in 1-on-1 mentoring you can review drafts with a composer and decide what comes next.
FAQ
Where should I start with songwriting?
Mapping the structure of a song you love is a good start. Then write your own draft from a short chorus idea.

No, but a chord instrument or a DAW makes it easier to try ideas.
What do I need to know for film scoring?
Basic harmony, orchestration and practice placing music to picture. Working with short scenes is a good exercise.
