It’s sad that it even needs to be said but the practice of cue sheet stealing is all too common. I doubt the composers currently doing that will change their ways as they feel all kinds of justified for doing it. But if we can educate the next generation on how these things used to be handled properly then maybe things can change to more adequate behavior in the future. Thanks for reading my story by the way!

Anne-Kathrin, thanks for another great and useful video. I've been customizing a template, inspired by your features with a hybrid of the Henrik Cednert script code and some other script code. I can't seem to get the "sumif" formula for adding the duration of any of the checkbox columns to work properly. (I end up with either a "0" or "00:00".) I'm gonna bet you'd prefer not to open Pandora's Box and start answering technical questions here, but, I am curious as to what time cell formatting is needed for the cells referenced with this functionality, in order to get things to work properly. Thanks again. Andy

Hello Anne! I would like to ask you a couple of things regarding cue sheet and work registration. You mentioned that the PRO cue sheet serves for the royalty share and royalty collection etc. How does it work regarding work registration and the master registration on these towards your PRO so you get the ISWC and ISRC? You do this by yourself? If so, what happenes if the cue you wrote has for example 5minutes, but editors only used for 1 minute, 3 different times and that is what is in the cue sheet. Should you register the original length or the multiple usage of shorter length of the same work? I would be very interested to know more in depth about this, specially when you turn all these into a soundtrack album. Since you are going to change the titles, how do you link the new titles to the temporary ones created for the cue sheet, since they are the same work and share the same registration? Thank you so much! All best!

@AnneKathrinDernComposer4 жыл бұрын
I haven’t tried CueDB yet, though I’ve looked into it. I have previously used CueTracker and Cue Chronicle but my main issue with these programs is that everyone in the music department would need access to a copy or subscription. And even then a lot of them don’t synch automatically and you’re constantly busy exporting files or updated PDFs and sending them around and only one person can make those updates. To me this defeats the purpose of keeping everyone updated at all times with minimal effort - where everyone has free access and can update themselves at any time.

I tried CueDB for a short film, which naturally is a much smaller scale situation, but I can see it working really well for any big production, really.

I'm really interested in how you established the formula for the total score section - it would be really nice to figure out a way to clearly see how much work is in progress and how much is still remaining from the total score! I figured out the other formulas, just not how to calculate the durations from cells marked with 'in progress'. Once I figure out how to do that I should be able to easily determine the formula for what's remaining. Anybody know how to do this?!

Thanks for watching! There is no default formula that does that. You need to add an extra script in the background, created by Stockholm-based coder Henrik Cednert.

Do you have different DAW sessions for each cue or a single big template? If separate, isn't it a headache if the director edits 1m3 to finish at 1:03:00:00? Now it's shorter, every cue will be thrown off and you must open every session and subtract time, then open your master project and glue stuff together.. Same goes if something earlier is shorted or lengthened. This is my biggest dilemma. Film scoring seems like a giant headache compared to interactive video game music.
@AnneKathrinDernComposer4 жыл бұрын
I got into this in my Q&A Part 1 video since it's a common question. The short answer is: Yes, you use a different DAW session for each cue. We don't go in and change each cue if some thing in 1M3 changes. We only change the time code and time stamp on the exported files, and then adjust the cue sheet. Also, this is what reels are for. Each reel starts at zero again so even if something in reel 1 changes, it would only affect cues in reel 1. We also have a tendency to record cues to old picture versions if only the position of the cue changed. And then we fix it with the final audio stems before the delivery to the dub stage.
@markgerazzi90734 жыл бұрын
@@AnneKathrinDernComposer Thanks for response! I get reels, but I don't understand how only changing time code/stamp in a cue is enough. How don't you go in and add another say 40 sec of music in 1m3? Now 1m4 starts later. I'm assuming you deliver stems per cue and not reeI? Is there a point of having a master project and cutting/pasting audio and video together or is that just overkill? I need to grasp this for a documentary soon. And I thought horizontal resequencing was a mind F. Is there more in depth tutorials out there? I watched part 1 but it does not answer enough questions for me. By the way love your midi export for live recording video, very helpful!
