TMCP 003: The Five rules of Trailer Music
Well, it's more like the five "guidelines" but "rules" sounds so much more definitive and generally more awesome doesn't it. If I were to say "the five guidelines of trailer music" it would sound more like a HR manual then a gripping podcast episode.
That aside. These five rules appear this early on in my show because you will find that I talk about them quite a lot. Or at least they are incredibly relevant to the way I work and the way I encourage other people to work.
If you don't agree with the rules and have your own then that's great. Well done. Again, I could possibly call these the "five anecdotal guidelines", but it's starting to sound more like a medical brochure now.
These are essential to all trailer composers, in fact all creative people in general. So I would (obviously) suggest you give these a listen.
