52 Cues - A Production Music Podcast

Getting Into Film Scoring (with Scott Mclaughlin)

Dave Kropf Season 2024 Episode 27

For many, including myself, film music remains the Holy Grail. While I love writing production music for libraries, scoring to picture is a rewarding and challenging pursuit that I aspire to.

So joining me today on the podcast is 52 Cues family member Scott McLaughlin, who is venturing into film music. We discuss his upcoming projects, how he balances production and film music, which skills transfer, and the challenges he faces.
