The Canadian screen composing industry: an industrial primer

The Screen Composers Guild of Canada (SCGC) has generously allowed Circum Network to make available the study of the professional environment of screen composers in Canada that it completed on its behalf. This study was supported by the Ontario Media Development Corporation. Screen composers are professional creators and producers of original music scores and songs used in audio-visual productions viewed on screens in cinemas, on television, and on digital and wireless devices.

Conducted in 2014, the study describes the screen composing sector, the business structures and models commonly used, the composition of revenues and expenses, barriers to growth, and the connections with related industrial sectors. It is based on a survey of members of SCGC and an analysis of existing documentation and published statistics.
