Congrats!!!

This is a great start into hopefully what will be a continuing road into the biz. Get a contract ASAP: have in writing what is expected of you, and don't undervalue your work.

My advice - keep a cool head. Things will get overwhelming: when there's tension, work hard at keeping emotions down, and the task at hand.

Composing can be tough enough - doing editing/engineering can add stress, and often waters down what you should be focussing on - composition and it's role with the picture!

Are you alone? Is there anyone else doing editing/engineering? Is this a 'budget' film, or an indie venture?

I've done composition for more than a couple of projects, and that got me wanting to do more in the film industry. It's a different game than working with bands/musicians...

In any case, good luck with it!
