Scoring Mastery features short yet challenging scoring assignments in three completely different genres - comedy, drama and animation - and you'll get to keep these short films to rescore for further practice, or to showcase in your portfolio, website or social media.
You also get additional mid-assignment emails to keep you focused, and on track, and you get bonus resources that you can use on an ongoing basis in your scoring.
And as a special course completion bonus, you get an "I Am A Composer" Intro To Scoring Coffee Mug.
Scoring Mastery is a unique, high-touch mentorship, with direct access to Film Composer and Intro To Scoring creator, Aoife O'Leary, and spaces are limited.

Meet Your Guide... Aoife O’Leary
Aoife O’Leary is a film composer and producer from Dublin, Ireland.
Just one year into her production journey, Aoife landed her first feature film!
Fast forward to today, and she has scored four full-length movies, including Hulu’s #1 hit, Cult Killer (starring Antonio Banderas), and the crime/action/comedy Guns Up, featuring Kevin James and Christina Ricci.
Aoife did all of this without being able to read or write music, with no music education background and without even being able to play an instrument!
One of the unexpected joys of Aoife's journey has been creating Intro to Scoring, where she gets the opportunity to support fellow creatives and composers in breaking into the exciting world of scoring.
