#15 What it's like being a Filipino composer abroad ft. Jaimie Pangan Do Re Lian

Ever wanted to compose music for film? In today's episode I chat with Jaimie Pangan. Jaimie quit her job at IBM to pursue her master's in film composition at USC (a difficult program that only accepts 20 students a year). I found her story intriguing when I came across it on a When in Manila. In this episode we talk about:


Writing melodies for film vs. songs
Her experience taking her Masters at USC
What she learned from her professors
Composing for film vs. composing for games
The business of being a full-time musician
Mindset of being a successful freelance musician
Dealing with fears and insecurities



We had a lot of fun chatting and even recorded a second part! Maybe I'll upload soon but for now please enjoy this episode with Jaimie.
