Overview: Veteran composers Jesse Harlan and Austin Wintory discuss the hidden realities of crunch faced by freelancers. Having dealt with a range of difficult situations, the pair will share stories of this taboo subject when work piled up, overlapped and undermined general health and sanity. Much of the source of this problem lies in its never being discussed, so this session aims to address that, while also examining possible long term strategies for coping, and improving it.
