depends entirely on the client(s)

Small studio rates start from around £150 a day - stupidly cheap, yes, but that's the reality

compose jobs for the uk while living in the us. budgets are good there. i guess it really depends on what you're scoring. cost of living is cheaper here. i guess it really depends on what you're scoring.

maybe you should just start where you are. once you've hit the ground running..then decide.

It's all about your ability and clients, then

All anyone can really say is that you can make a decent living if you get the work, but it's very hard and demanding work, of that there's no doubt

This is obvious, but, basically, you don't get paid for making music--only selling it.
