I know, you're thinking songwriting and screenwriting are totally different.I think they're a lot alike.Where you get ideas from, how to write lyrics and the music, and the fact dedicated songwriters and screenwriters write everyday. Whether it's one page or 10.
Songwriting ideas are grabbed from the same thoughts on life situations that can't be answered. And movie and TV screenwriting ideas are based a lot on situations that can't be resolved or answered. But writing the lyrics and music are the only things that differ slightly from screen writing.
Only slightly.
So , don't write songs strictly for business and making money, or else you'll end up quitting. Don't think so? most songwriters and screen-writers quit if they don't live out their writing dreams.
Be willing to fail as many times as it takes as a songwriter.
Still don't believe songwriting and screenwriting aren't intertwined, then you need to learn more from screenwriters and write more.
No, don't take a course but think about learning more and interviewing a successful songwriter or even a screenwriter.
Much success in your songwriting.
