First library contact!

Post by AlanHall » Mon Jan 30, 2023 8:34 am

2022 was a slow year for me production-wise, so I vowed to redouble my efforts about last November. Got a couple forwards out of 7 cues submitted (from last Nov til now), and the first library contact since joining Taxi! I have been a member since late 2019, and have been building up my SW and HW resources across those years.

I think I'm on track to follow Dave Kropf's "5 steps to success" with acquiring studio tools, gaining business knowledge, getting better at hitting listing targets, being confident and 'brave' about my abilities; and now I can take the next step - to beat back resistance - in order to provide the content that I'm comfortable making and that will delight the library (libraries, soon?) that I am contracted with.

Congrats on the deal Alan!
BTW I really enjoyed your latest forward, the modern investigation cue. Nice work!
Hopefully you will hear from that library as well!

Take care,
Erik

...let me add that the atmosphere of support that exists on this forum has continued to both educate me, and motivate me to be my 'best composer/self'. I appreciate hearing from you!
