Tea Break Tip: Be in the movie

Pro Songwriting Masterclass | Martin Sutton (Céline Dion, Cliff Richard, Lena, Garou, Charley Ann, Micheal Patrick Kelly ...)

Be in the movie. Okay? So close your eyes and listen to it. And what I do is I imagine that if this piece of music were playing in a movie as an incidental piece of music, what would the characters be doing? Would they be running towards each other on a beach? Would they be hurling teacups at each other? Would it be a fight scene in the street? Would it be somebody who’s just won a race at the end of the movie? One of those triumphant moments. You know, it will, your, your mind will take you there.  

Allow your movie to play. I don’t mean think of another movie. Be in your movie for that song and let the imagery take you
