GBInspiration. I joined the very first momentum group. It was during a creative lull. The teachers and other students proved to be the inspiration I needed to get back on track. I also learned several skills to make the writing process more streamlined, and the final product better sounding. I would highly recommend momentum to anyone who wants to be a film composer.

GBMomentum is one of the best decisions I… Momentum is one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. If you want to become a professional from an amateur composer in less time, this is the best platform. Well rounded course that is no less to any conservatory studies. They cover all the areas a composer should be aware of about the industry. More than anything Momentum builds your confidence and make you ready for the industry.

GBAn 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.

GBBootcamp for Beginners Overall I was very happy with the Momentum program. The only reason for my rating of 4 stars vs 5 is because as a beginner, I felt overwhelmed. I was still learning my DAW when I began and the technical hurdles were incredibly challenging. I was using Logic and most of the classes / videos were taught on Cubase. There was so much information to be taken in and a very intense time schedule to complete the assignments that I felt I was barely keeping my head above water. I often thought I would have gotten more out of the program had I had more experience under my belt. All that being said, I persisted with the program, managed to keep up and in the end emerged with a tremendous amount of experience, knowledge and confidence in my ability that quite possibly would have taken me years to achieve.
