==Wired Event: Interested in Composing Music or Films? Wednesday May, 13th, 2:00pm-5:00pm, UEA, Arts A01.02==
 +
 +
How do you become a film composer? What skills do you need? 
 +
 +
This free event is an excellent opportunity for everyone.  All welcome!
 +
 +
Andrew Pearce began his musical life at the age of nine and began composing pieces for his local youth orchestra at the age of 17.  He gained a BA Hons in Music at the University of East Anglia and in 1996, won the PRS Sir Arthur Bliss Scholarship to study MMus Composition for Screen at the Royal College of Music London, under award winning film and TV composers George Fenton and Joseph Horovitz.  In 2003 he composed his first feature film, 30 Miles and since then he has gone on to compose additional music for such films as Modigliani (2004), CashBack (2005) and Dot.Com (2006).  His most recent film was Dark Corners, an independent Hollywood Film released in 2006 staring Thora Birch and Toby Stephens. In addition to his film scoring commitments, Andrew has also composed a symphony in four movements titled ‘Cinema Symphony’.  More information can be found at http://www.andrew-pearce.com. 
 +
 +
Andrew will be discussing his work scoring for film along with examining what process and skills, such as orchestration and reading music to picture, are required of a composer working on films today.  He will also discuss the importance of short films for emerging composers interested in a music career in the film industry shedding light on what it takes to make it into the world of music and films.
