Summary: Good introductory guide
Comment: A great introductory guide to scoring films. Davis explains all the various film music jargon, the roles of music editors and producers (among others) and what royalties you are entitled to. Also covered is the history of film music, what techniques you use to synchronize the action, how to strike deals, the importance of personal relations, et.c. I found it to be an enlightening guide that gave me the answers I was looking for. The language is dry for the most part, but easy to read and learn from.
Rating: 5
Summary: Complete, thorough
Comment: As a Berklee Alumni, and a former student of Richard Davis I found this book to be vital to understanding certain "unspoken subtleties" of the film scoring world. A great book for those ibnexperienced in the field and for those who even have been around the block once or twice. Offers a great perspective on the workings of the craft of scoring.

Summary: Very informative and interesting!
Comment: As a musician interested in writing for film I was looking for a book that could give me the gist of the business and the craft. Richard Davis did a wonderful job with this very informative book, covering a lot of ground, but not getting lost in too many details. I strongly recommend this book to anybody who would just like to stick their nose into that business or need a reference point to start from. It was a good read and very helpful to me.
