Hey Mark, that sounds like a really great idea, maybe you could add the sub-forum, or maybe place that suggestion on the group. I'm not really sure how to do that, I'm pretty new to Indaba and this is my first group, Film scoring is just a passion of mine so I thought it would be cool to have a group about it. I'm really hoping that people will collaborate on the group.
Hey Mark, I just started a new group here at Indaba for film scores, check it out and leave some insight, maybe a good film score you know of, here is the link.
