If you don't already know me- hi, I'm Cheska! And I'm a film composer based in San Diego, CA :) I make videos documenting my journey and sharing the things I've learned along the way.

In this video, I share what I would do to get my first film scoring gig if I had to start over again from zero experience. Breaking into the film music industry is challenging, but by sharing this I hope to show composers that it is possible to get your foot in the door without moving to LA or applying for assistant jobs.

At the end of the day, everyone's path is different but this was mine. Using crowdfunding sites and social media was how I got my first paid film composing job and that was in 2021, and I definitely had no experience. I haven't looked back since! If I had to start over, this is what I would do to find film scoring jobs and become a film composer.

Just a note, this video is more relevant to those who don't necessarily want to pursue a career in Hollywood, but rather work as a film composer where ever they are in the world.

I hope that you find this video helpful!
