Composing Career
#1
Hi,
My name is Thomas, I’m from Spain and I’m 15 years old. I’m in the 4th course of medium degree in a music school of piano in my country, and I’m looking for some recommendations by someone experienced about my possibilities in the future.
I live in Tenerife, Canary Islands, and I’m in the main music school there, I don’t find it to be bad, but (and that’s why I’m thinking and writing about this), I find the teaching methods there to be quite old-fashioned, and I’m looking for something more focused in modern music.
I have decided that I want to study and work with something related to music, especially with composing. I have searched a bit, and what I find quite appealing are OSTs, for films and videogames (indie ones).
I’m going to finish the high school studies here (I don’t know whether to choose sciences or arts), so the recommendations I’m looking for should be related to the university degree. I don’t care if it’s in my country or abroad. I’d like to do something a bit mixed (not just music composing and that’s it), cause I consider that I like doing lots of things, and I’m not bad in many things, so… Especially, I’m thinking about something related to composing and animation or something like that (for videogames).
What are the options that I have? Should I do two careers (not too tough ones), each of those related to both things? Should I aim for a career related to both things? What universities and careers should I look for? How can I start getting prepared?
Any help would be really appreciated,
Thomas
