My composing rate is $600 -$1000 per minute for a standard music score of a 60 - 120-minute+ film, or $100K base.
Composition and score mock-up only.
(Add $25K - $50K for live orchestra, studio time, and professional mixing.
Or $85K for a complete Digital Score using a top-tier sampled orchestral library with small orchestra and professional mixing.)
I require 2 - 4 months to complete the score. More time may be warranted depending on the final edit of the film.

Q: How Do I Get A Great Score?
A: Bring the composer in early, if possible.
Note: Once you know we will work together, it costs you nothing to bring me on early in the project to understand your vision. In this way, the score has more cohesion to the film. The more we communicate, the more I understand your desire for the film.
