Problems with Film Composing Today

[Christopher John Curcio]

Unfortunately these days, when it comes to Films (even Documentaries), too often the music, which is needed to drive and/or support the final production, is neglected; until the very end. It's an afterthought, resulting in, quite frankly, a weak musical composition. What should have been an integral part of the filmmaking process is forced to become a formulaic, often dull and disconnected music bed.
