The Basics
Q: How does Indie
Film Composers work?
A: IFC is a music production entity which subcontracts
composition out to our worldwide affiliates. IFC acts as the
executive producer of the score. This guarantees consistent
production values and an optimized creative environment across a
wide spectrum of projects, artists and locales. And you'll never
have an IFC composer slough off your indie film score onto their
$8-an-hour assistant. Remember that awful score you heard last week?
It happens all the time in Hollywood.
Q:
What kind of music do you offer?
A:
As varied as the film world itself: full orchestral scores, midi
scores, ethnic/folk acoustic ensembles, pop music soundtracks,
ambient/techno...you name it, we got it. Not to mention the
authentic and unique in-country music afforded by our various
composers all over the world. Try getting that sound locally or even
in L.A.
Q:
I need a great composer for my indie film. What next?
A:
Contact us and give us the particulars of your film's needs: the
content, budget, post timetable, etc. We generally would like to see
the shooting script to further evaluate the project. Your ideas on
musical direction are very important to us and aid us in narrowing
the field for the right composer.
Q:
Then what?
A:
We'll respond with our recommendations for composer, accompanied by
samples of their work.
Q:
What'll this cost me?
A:
Nothing.
