[Fmpro] Educating Filmmakers, Feature Gigs and Distractions

[Christopher Alpiar]

I saw Michael Clayton the other night... very well done and powerful  
movie. Not the best of that kind I have seen, but still worthy of some  
nominations.

OK it was credited with James Newton Howard as the composer... there  
wasn't that much score actually but the songs were ALL through APM

let me repeat that

ALL of the songs were from APM

the new game has started a while ago and its just going to get more  
and more saturated. You may not like the library concept man, but its  
going to be the only way music is placed not only in TV but in full  
hollywood productions
