New Here- Hollywood Composer currently seeking new projects

Hello Everyone!

My name is Jonathan Hartman and I am a film composer here in Los Angeles. I am a graduate of the New York University masters program in film scoring, where I studied music editing with Tim Starnes (Lord of the Rings) and music composition with Ira Newborn (Naked Gun, John Hughes pics, etc).

I moved to Los Angeles in August last year and have been working with composer John Ottman (Superman Returns, Valkyrie). I also write additional music for other A-list composers on tight timetables on the side, as well as a lot of commercial advertising.

In the summer of 2011 I scored the short film "Oysters Rockefeller" by director Charles Rogers. In the fall of 2011 I scored the feature film "The Employer", starring Malcolm McDowell and Paige Howard. IN 2012 I will be scoring the feature film "The Algerian", starring Ben Youcef, Harry Lennix, and Josh Pence.

If you have any interest in original music for your project, please feel free to email or call me to discuss it. I am mainly interested in building great working relationships with filmmakers these days- I'd love to hear about your films!

My website has a large number of samples of my work. You all know the drill by now!

Looking forward to working with all of you- all the best,

Jonathan Hartman

One more thing- We all tend to know our areas of expertise the best. And filmmakers, by and large, know film, cameras, lighting, editing, etc backwards and forwards!

i know that there are a LOT of beginning filmmakers who haven't had as much experience with music on the post-production side.

So, if anyone ever has any questions on formats, sync, technical issues, etc. Please ask. I'm more than willing to share information and tips.
