GROW AND BUILD GOOD EVENING, THX FOR THE REVIEW OPPORTUNITY. MARC J. AND MOMENTUM TEACHERS AND NEW STUDENTS. MY EXPERIENCE WITH MM WAS THE BEST INVESTMENT I MADE TOWARDS MY LOVE OF MUSIC, I LEARNED SO MUCH I TOOK THIS OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN MORE ABOUT ORCHESTRATION AND ITS MUSICAL ELEMENTS, AND MASTERING...... IT WAS GREAT FOR ME AND I TOOK NONE OF IT PERSONAL, WE ALL HAVE FLAWS IN OUR CREATION OF MUSIC, BUT IF A STUDENT CAN'T TAKE criticism THEN THIS PROGRAM ISNT FOR THAT INDIVIDUAL, IN ORDER TO GROW AS A COMPOSER WE MUST LEARN TO TAKE SOME CRITICISM ON OUR MUSIC. THAT IS HOW WE GROW AND FIND OURSELVES. I HAD AN ISSUE WITH UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AUDIO FILES AND STEM FILES, GETTING PAST THE FRUSTRATION ALLOWED ME NOT TO GIVE UP..... NOT HAPPENING.....LOL AND I PERSEVERED TO LEARN THE DIFFERENCE AND NOW ITS ALL GOOD, BIG THX TO DIRK EHLERT HE WAS TOUGH ON ME, BUT THAT TOUGH LOVE HELPED ME TO STEP IT UP,,,,,ESPECIALLY IF WE DONT GET THE JOB WE MUST ALWAYS AND ONLY BE PROFESSIONAL. WORD OF MOUTH GETS AROUND IN THIS BUSINESS......ALWAYS BE IN CONTROL OF UR EMOTIONS. MOMENTUM TAUGHT ME TO HAVE MORE CONFIDENCE IN MYSELF, EVEN WHEN THINGS ARE NOT IN MY FAVOR, I MUST MAINTAIN MY EMOTIONS AND STAY CONFIDENT AND FOCUSED, THIS PROCESS WILL MAKE ANYONE BETTER AT THEIR CRAFT. AS A TEENAGE DRUMMER THE GROUP I CREATED WE WERE RIGHT AT THE SIGNING DOOR, BUT THOSE PPL I WAS DEALING WITH BACK IN "79" KICKED ME OUT OF MY OWN BAND UNFORTUNATELY, BUT THEN EVERYTHING WENT TO THE SH-- HOLE BECAUSE OF GREED AND SELFISHNESS.

GREAT EXPERIENCE, GREAT TEACHERS WHO WANT U TO REALLY LEARN AND BE BETTER. THX AGAIN MARC J. AND MM. ALL THE BEST, Gregg E Birch

Momentum Momentum is an exceptional program that I highly recommend. As a film composer with hands-on experience, I've participated in Momentum by teaching a series of Masterclasses. Additionally, in 2022 I had the privilege of overseeing some recording sessions at the Bridge Studios in Los Angeles. One aspect that stands out about Momentum is its effort to include students from various backgrounds across the globe, making Momentum a standout choice for those passionate about writing and producing music for media.

Momentum Gave Me Hope Prior to joining Momentum, I'd gone to traditional conservatory and while it was a great experience to have, it was very much rooted in a different culture when it came to the music I wanted to create as a composer and the music they were trying to push me in the direction of. The Momentum program, and Cinematic Composing as a whole, allowed me to score music to film in a way that spoke to me and not to how the instructors wanted my finished product to sound. My creative voice was respected and Momentum allowed me to challenge myself by pushing my creative boundaries without losing my creative voice in the process. Before Momentum, I felt like I wouldn't be able to write music others would/could appreciate due to my experience in conservatory, but Momentum helped me prove to myself that my creative voice is valuable and gave me hope for my creative career.

This course is absolute wonderful This course is absolute wonderful. I was one of the founding course members that started in february 2022. It has been a great experience. I learned so much in the six months that I followed this course, to get reviews from well-known composers like Javier Navarette, Christopher Young and Matthew Fisher is so valuable. The expertice of Marc Jovani is outstanding, besides that he is a really kind person and very patient. The lessons and streams with Marc were refreshing and clear. In particular the technical support was really helpful. The way he explaines is so good, it has been an honour to be a part of this and it was one of the most wonderful experiences of my life. I really recomend this course.

An unforgettable and transformative experience As a participant in the first cohort of the Momentum program, I can confidently say that it was a transformative experience that exceeded all my expectations. Momentum is an intensive program designed to elevate your skills in music composition. It includes weekly assignments with detailed feedback, classes with knowledgeable coaches, and monthly masterclasses with established composers. Before joining Momentum, I was struggling with imposter syndrome and a fear of not creating "perfect" music. This program gave me the accountability and actionable feedback I needed to overcome these barriers and improve my music quality. The numerous "aha" moments were invaluable, from technical insights to mindset shifts, and this helped me finish compositions confidently and focus on the process, not just the outcome. Momentum kickstarted my career as a composer. I landed my first paid gig and made connections that led to signing tracks with music libraries. The networking aspect is one the big benefits of the program. I still talk regularly to many of the friends I made there. And this industry it's all about connections! Through these people I met more people and even though it's a journey that I'm still going through, this is what made it possible for me. The mentors and guest composers brought diverse perspectives and expertise. Their feedback on my music was not just about technical aspects but also about understanding the industry and how to handle feedback effectively. For anyone at a similar point in their music career, I totally recommend Momentum. Whether you're a beginner or have some experience, the intensity and networking opportunities are incredibly beneficial. The program is challenging but provides all the support you need to grow and succeed. I rate Momentum 5 stars for being one of the best educational experiences I've had. It significantly surpassed my expectations in every aspect. A special bonus: because we were the first cohort, Marc, the program's founder, organized an extraordinary recording session in LA, where I met him and most of my classmates in person. It was my first time composing for and conducting a live orchestra. This experience, generously funded by Marc, was unforgettable. While this specific event was not strictly part of the program, it speaks a lot about Marc's dedication and generosity.
