Is there a strong competition between the companies writing for trailers?
– Yes, it is true that there are a lot of people & companies scoring movie trailers & there is certainly fierce competition as there is in any other entertainment field. In addition to scoring, a lot of of the music in film trailers now is being licensed from music libraries & other film scores and songs. I think because Jeff & I do a lot of music for other projects and are not just focused only on movie trailer music we don’t feel the competition as much. We also have really great relationships with many of the producers that we have worked with over several years and know that they will call us if they need something… That being said, there is a lot at stake with advertising for big films because of all the money involved in making them so there is never any room to do anything but your best work! – Do you pay particular attention to other trailer pieces and the work of the other companies? – I pay attention to EVERYTHING! … however my focus is not necessarily always on trailers,
