I think scoring to picture would be good. instead of just composing...compose to a reel or video.

How to take a piano sketch and turn it into a full blown 2 minute masterpiece only using the chords from the piano sketch......strings, brass, woods, voicing. A romantic, slow bpm genre.

I'd love to see some tutorial on Choir - where to look at, what makes sense, how to EQ and make the choir stand out... Something like this...

I'd like to see a really good session on creating a uplifting/fairytale type piece. You've composed them so I know you can do it! :D Oh and still waiting for Albion1 template! :P PS: Symphobia Lumina would be amazing for the type of music I'm thinking. Hint hint

I would love to hear another track similar in style to "From Within" from your Elements album. Loved that one so much, easily my favorite!

Would love to see how to setup for scoring to picture, and some of the basics like determining tempo, how to sync cue hit points to picture events, etc. I always learn so much from your streams - thanks for everything you do!

I really love John Powells How To Train Your Dragon compositions. Would love to see your process on how to make that sort of genre.

Just stared watching your channel. Great stuff. I would love to see scoring to picture and that workflow. Specially in Studio One 5. Maybe a beautiful and melodic Horror theme ala Jerry Goldsmith - Poltergeist. Thanks so much.

Trailer music is good overall, but after some time it's getting boring at least for me, and music composing is so much more than just trailer music. I would like to watch streams about drama, emotional, adventurous, funny or any other kind of composing like was 2-3 years ago on your channel. Your content is gold anyway, just a tiny bit more diversity, please!

While it is always interesting when you work with orchestral/cinematic stuff, I particularly enjoy when you venture in to other genres like the very nice trance track you did some months ago. Why not try making an interesting traditional House track or maybe some electronic or hybrid ambient / chill tracks. Or maybe some Berlin school Tangerine Dream-inspired stuff? I also wish you would continue the round tables with other composers. It is always fun to listen to Daniel James and others point of views on the music industry as of today (although I wish they would last longer when you do them - an hour is really short and you only managed to cover very few topics/questions in the streams you have done so far).
