From a “RUclips career” standpoint, I can totally understand wanting to make the videos that do well. As a consumer of your content, I will say your tech videos are enormously helpful to me. I would love to see a template video of yours as I have yet to set one up for myself.
Your channel is such a treasure trove to me, as I’m pursuing engineering and have to work towards my goal of becoming a film composer on the side (blended with a music minor). Please never stop making these videos! 💜 Also please continue this series! I would love to see more
Id love to see more videos like this! I love learning composing concepts, but my biggest roadblock as a composer is interfacing with software and actually getting my ideas down without wasting time and losing momentum. Thanks for the color coded regions tip! That sounds very helpful.
I'm probably the exception, but I've worked with computers for over 40 years and find this to be about all the detail I need, more as confirmation of my thinking than actual instruction. What I need is the composing and orchestration help to move from a cowboy songwriter to creating soundtracks for my animation. But whatever you do, I'll be watching it.
This kind of video is exactly what I need as a composer finding my way in the world of DAWs and film scores. Thank you! And more videos like it would be great!
This was a great video, feel free to make more of these! :) By the way, I don't consider this purely "tech" content, it is more "the practice of composing" which you are really great at (I think). So yes, more, please - and thank you for what you do!
More tech videos are much appreciated as well Ryan. Love this video too. You're able to transfer your knowledge so densely and clear as well.Thank you!
I'm very interested in music topics, scoring for movies, writing, and analyzing music, etc. Thanks for creating these videos! I'm a performing musician and I'm starting to get into more creating music for different contents, so thanks for your tips! Also continue the harmonizing and orchestration videos, very interesting! Thanks 💪🏻
I’m glad you are using a track as a “marker track”. I’ve started doing this as a hack not knowing if there was a better way. Some times, I like having also my chords listed in a “marker track”.
6:30 a slight response to this: since the speed of light is faster than the speed of sound, it's not uncommon for composers to write a hit slightly earlier than the mark, since the audience won't register the sound at the same speed as the image.
100% my process. Thank you. I feel like I'm on the right path. I look forward to your stem discussion, especially deliverables and how they actually get their hand on your work..
This is so insanely useful thank you! I got super excited when I saw this video 😂 Happy new year and thank you for sharing all this, I always look forward to your videos :D
I really REALLY loved this video and would love to see more of this kind of stuff. I'm just starting to venture into this world and it really helps me to learn things I had no idea about
I personally love Tech vids..thanks for this and more like this would be great..i kind of know what I'm doing , but it's always nice to get a refresher course now and then!
Where can I find a library of free-to-use video content that I can compose to? So that I can build a portfolio and upload them to RUclips without facing copyright issues. Thank you for all your content. It's extremely useful and inspiring.
Super handy! Thank you for showing us the more technical side of composing. One question about midi cc. Say you have a part where the strings are lower in dynamics and the next part you want to make a new recording where the strings are louder but the cc values of the last recording are still taking effect even if you have nothing recorded for the next part. How do you reset cc values back to 0 to keep writing new ideas?
Hey Ryan, loved the video, thank you so much. I have a question, tho. When writing for a live orchestra how would things be timed because you can't have exact tempos and tempo changes right?
Thanks for the great content Ryan, I have a question, im currently working on my first full length score and the music along with all other audio is going to another engineer for surround mixing and mastering. I wrote the music for the score with stereo in mind and im wondering how I should export stems for the engineer? Should I send every instrument group as a track along with reverbs and stuff or should I send stems that are more akin to function, such as Atmospheric, bass, percussion, lead instruments etc.? I realize I should talk to the engineer and ask what they would prefer but the team behind the movie hasnt actually hired anyone yet and it would be nice to start preparing now! :)
The DAW that I use isn't Logic, and it doesn't have the frame-matching feature or a good video preview. I can't get the video to precisely match the markers or the audio since it lags every time I start playback. Will this be a major handicap in the future if I want to continue trying to score alongside videos?
1.Exportar el video 2. Ajusta los frames de la sesion a los frames del video exportado Hits Con marcadores, busca momentos especificos donde quieres que la musica destaque algo Ajusta los marcadores para que no se muevan de su sitio Tempo y metrica La musica se oira bien incluso si el hit esta como a 2 frames despues del corte de escena, nunca antes del corte para el tempo piensa en la atmosfera en general 7:19 ejemplo Cuando termines de crea la musica para ese hit point, escribe sobre ese hitpoint un marcador de tiempo asi cualquier cambio de tempo o metrica que se haga despues no afectara a lo que ya hiciste detras 8:57 2 posibles soluciones cuando un hitpoint no encaja bien con el tempo que estas usando 1.Cambiar la metrica y/o el tempo (antes o en medio del hit) para que caiga en el tiempo 1 de la metrica.

I was interested in the contest, so I dug through the charity (In Place of War) and its Israel fundraiser is sorely disappointing. 3 of the 4 associated organizations blatantly use antisemitic tropes, deny Israeli suffering, fail to mention the Israeli hostages still being held by Gazan terrorists, or so forth. Not a good look to have blatant jew hatred in the larger charity. The hack music catalyst fund supports arts in "The Global South", which excludes Israel but includes hostile countries and occupied territories around it that participated in the October 7th terror attacks and the ongoing aggression against Israel and Jews abroad since. While IPOW didn't create the concept of the Global South, this might require clarification. Neutral parties that 1) fail to mention Israeli hostages, 2) adopt antisemitic narratives, or 3) exclude Israel by boycotts, groupings, denying Israel's right to exist, etc, do not inspire a ton of confidence in their neutrality and in their charitable action more generally. Unfortunately, the arts and charities are not at all immune to the rising trend of antisemitism.

Very helpful. It's nice to see the more "technical side" of your workflow!

Nice video, it's cool to learn a bit about making music in a new context (films).
Thanks! For a minute I forgot I posted this early on Patreon and was wondering how you found it already 😆

The only problem with your content is that I want more of it and you likely can’t create the content as quickly as I can watch it

This video was super helpful, thanks for creating this, Ryan. I would love to see more tech videos in the future!
Loved it Ryan, please more stuff like this ❤🎉
As a user of Logic who is just learning how to score video, this video was a LIFE SAVER! Thank you so much!
I’m glad you are using a track as a “marker track”. I’ve started doing this as a hack not knowing if there was a better way. Some times, I like having also my chords listed in a “marker track”.
Really appreciate this video. Super helpful for getting started!
Yes please. Please share more of what you know about the technical side of scoring a picture 😊
this is literally so helpful. i’ve scored a couple films as an amateur and this lays out steps i will definitely be referring to in my next project
This video showed me more than a course i took a while back, would love to see more like them
6:30 a slight response to this: since the speed of light is faster than the speed of sound, it's not uncommon for composers to write a hit slightly earlier than the mark, since the audience won't register the sound at the same speed as the image.
More, please 🙏
This is super helpful - thanks!
100% my process. Thank you. I feel like I'm on the right path. I look forward to your stem discussion, especially deliverables and how they actually get their hand on your work..
Clear, friendly and calm, as always. Thanks for posting.
Awesome vid! Thanks Ryan.
This is so insanely useful thank you! I got super excited when I saw this video 😂
Happy new year and thank you for sharing all this, I always look forward to your videos :D
This was a great video, Ryan. Please make more in due time! As short as it was, these 13 minutes are invaluable.
This was probably the most useful video I have watched from you. This will help me work much more effectively. Thank you very much Ryan!
Thank you
more of this pls
I loved this video. I'am just getting started into Film Scoring and this video was so helpful. Keep doing them!
I really REALLY loved this video and would love to see more of this kind of stuff. I'm just starting to venture into this world and it really helps me to learn things I had no idea about
Great Video
The tips and information are great. More like this with more links to public archives of video without sound.
Thanks
Oh man, glad I went to cubase instead of logic LOLOL. great informative vid!
Really great video Ryan, thanks for the work! I’m starting to think it may be time to switch from ableton to dp or cubase aha
Of course more videos like this are welcome. Thanks for this analisys how to set up the DAW, a refresh always is usefull.
Thank you, Mr Leach. You are an excellent teacher, even with a video this short. I wouldn't mind more like this. :)
These are some valuable tips for scoring. Great video. *Thumbs up*
Awesome video as always! Some more tech and workflow hacks would be fantastic 👏
Thanks for this particular video, it was really informative.
Thank you so much for this video! Exactly what I was searching for, and love your channel by the way.
I personally love Tech vids..thanks for this and more like this would be great..i kind of know what I'm doing , but it's always nice to get a refresher course now and then!
Hi Ryan! Hope you’re having Happy Holidays! Of course more tech vids! Learned new things watching this one so… keep them coming please!
Спасибо за видео. Очень познавательно...
Really helpful, thanks Ryan! 🙏

Hey Ryan, loved the video, thank you so much. I have a question, tho. When writing for a live orchestra how would things be timed because you can't have exact tempos and tempo changes right?
Where does the actual written score for the orchestra come from for this competition?
Are you ever going to do a film score composition where composer actually score to a short film?
there is one, I talk about Score Relief in the video
Thanks for the great content Ryan, I have a question, im currently working on my first full length score and the music along with all other audio is going to another engineer for surround mixing and mastering.

Ha yea unfortunately you are right that question is best answered by the engineer!

It sounds like a major handicap
2nd
1.Exportar el video
2. Ajusta los frames de la sesion a los frames del video exportado
Hits
Con marcadores, busca momentos especificos donde quieres que la musica destaque algo
Ajusta los marcadores para que no se muevan de su sitio
Tempo y metrica
La musica se oira bien incluso si el hit esta como a 2 frames despues del corte de escena, nunca antes del corte
para el tempo piensa en la atmosfera en general
7:19 ejemplo
Cuando termines de crea la musica para ese hit point, escribe sobre ese hitpoint un marcador de tiempo asi cualquier cambio de tempo o metrica que se haga despues no afectara a lo que ya hiciste detras
8:57 2 posibles soluciones cuando un hitpoint no encaja bien con el tempo que estas usando
1.Cambiar la metrica y/o el tempo (antes o en medio del hit) para que caiga en el tiempo 1 de la metrica. Prestar atencion que al cambiar el tempo no sea muy diferente al que se venia usando
2.Fijate si el hit cae en un tiempo (cercano o exacto) de la metrica que estas usando, no tiene que ser en el primer tiempo siempre
Muchas graciaas carimañola ❤
