This weekend I was again teaching an immersive set of seminars on film scoring at Citrus College to a group of Japanese composers and producers. Over two days I took them on a tour of The Bridge Recording where we visited with film composer Mark Isham, taught them some fundamentals of composing for film, and guided them through scoring a scene of their own on a short deadline. The students were exchange students from the music production and engineering program at Nagoya School of Music.
