Like an actor, part of the job is selling oneself. A lot of crap is submitted. The notion of a coexistence seems desirable for most parties involved. We have a lot of talent here in the Bay Area and every one of the composers has their own specific styles and personalities, as the libraries do. If an awareness of the importance of music in film increases throughout the industry, and there is every indication that it will, composers stand to benefit the most.
Surprise is one of the best elements of the collaborative process.
