What Are The Rules Of Composition?
In this episode, I'm going to tell you what the rules of composition are, and not necessarily why they're important, but more what they are. I actually enjoyed recording this episode because I had to do some work and actual research. And I've come out with a list which is longer than any of the other lists that I've found, which is proving that I'm ad-libbing because that's not on my script!
I will caveat this episode by saying that rules are of course there to be broken. So don't worry, this is just really getting those cogs whirring on composition.
