They will give you publishing houses, contact names and addresses, and requirements for submission. As far as the question of a market goes, yes there is, but as a writer you should always be prepared for rejection yet continue to submit your work. Colleen Q I love music and have thought for years that the perfect career for me would be choosing the music for movie soundtracks. Not only would it be an extremely enjoyable job, but I think I might be pretty good at it. A Dear Movie Soundtracker, Now remember that there are soundtracks and scores.
Scores is the incredible music that creates a mood in a movie.
Composers who have studied for years and have lots of experience are contracted to do that work for movie studios. The additional music added to a movie to enhance the theme can be chosen by the director and his assistants or even the composer can have a say in songs added to the soundtrack. I think you should look at a career in film as a whole, not just picking the music. Or go the other route and work in publicity for a recording house, promoting the artists' work to the studios. Any of those possibilities sound really fun, but remember that entertainment can be a tough gig to break into, so you really want to get education and internships behind you.
