This Week's New Video
Collaboration Scenarios (Quick Tip): In this Quick Tip, Steve and Bonnie have a conversation about what they've observed about being "songwriters" writing with "artists" versus writing with other "songwriters." These are different types of collaboration scenarios, and being aware of this, can make you more prepared to get the most out of your session. Also, try to identify the difference between your "artist writer" mode and your "songwriter writer" or "facilitator" mode, so that you know which one (or both!) comes more naturally. Can you be either one, or both in one session? Also, learn how to stay positive without saying yes to ideas you don't like. And it's normal not to be able to cowrite with everyone. Chemistry plays a part!

asdf Collaboration, Part 1: In this talk on co-writing Steve Seskin relates some of his real life experiences from over 250 co-writes. Topics covered include how to choose a good co-writer for you, ways to honor your ideas and your co-writers', and the protocol of inviting someone to co-write. Collaboration is not for everyone, but when you find a kindred spirit who compliments your style yet offers a little different slant on things, it can open up your world. Collaboration, Part 2: In this lecture Steve Seskin talks about how he began co-writing after many years of choosing not to. Ultimately it became a way for him to improve his songs drastically, to write a lot more often, to learn a ton, and to get a better sense of his strengths and weaknesses as a writer. This video also attempts to demystify some of the legal issues surrounding co-writing. |
