From Fred Karlin’s book, “On The Track”:
“What is my film about? What am I trying to say? Who is my main character and what are they feeling, thinking in every scene? Work you did with the actors should be helpful with your composer and musical conversations.”

Of the 21 questions, I simplified down to what I feel are the 4 most important:

1. Which scenes need music?
5. Are you scoring dialogue scenes? Be careful!
8. Where should the music start and stop?
21. What type/style of music will you use?
