In Episode 256 of the 52 Cues Podcast, host Dave welcomes community mentor Mary Shaw for a deep dive into project management for composers working in production and library music. With so many moving parts—writing cues, pitching to libraries, managing tech, contracts, and deadlines—it’s easy for composers to feel overwhelmed. Mary shares practical strategies for organizing creative work, setting realistic goals, and building systems that support long-term sustainability without burnout. This episode offers valuable insights for composers looking to bring structure, clarity, and balance to their music careers while staying creatively focused.
