I still remember the moment I told myself I was finally going to “take composing seriously.”

I cleared my schedule, opened up Logic…and then spent three hours testing out string patches.

  • The day after...more tutorials.

  • Then I rebuilt my template.

Eventually, I convinced myself maybe I needed “just one more library” before I could really begin.

And suddenly a month had passed and I hadn’t written a piece of music.

If you’re anything like I was, you’re not lacking passion...

You’re stuck because no one ever prepared you for this part of the journey:

  • Opening your DAW and feeling completely lost

  • Starting new ideas, only to abandon them halfway

  • Wanting to improve, but not knowing what to actually focus on

It’s not that you’re not trying.

It’s that when things get hard & motivation fades, you’ve never been taught how to keep going!

Since then, I’ve worked with 100+ composers!

And I’ve seen this same pattern show up again and again:

  • Starting lots of ideas… but never finishing them

  • Constantly tweaking the DAW or template

  • Feeling lost about how to build a portfolio or even share their work

  • Wanting to make composing a real part of their life...but not knowing where to begin

After getting the chance to work with so many composers in calls, messages, mentorships, and feedback sessions, I realized the problem wasn’t motivation... it was momentum.

⭐️ Introducing Composer Odyssey Foundations

👉 This course is for you if you’re…

  • An aspiring media composer who wants to take your craft seriously

🤔 "Do I really need another music course?"

Most music courses teach composition, orchestration, harmony, or mixing.

This one focuses on what really holds you back: creative friction, lack of structure, and the invisible roadblocks that keep your music unfinished and unheard.

Composer Odyssey Foundations helps you build momentum over perfection so you can finish more music, grow more quickly, and show up confidently as a composer!

You might be thinking…

“I’m not experienced enough.”

“I’m not sure my music is ready to share.”

“I’ve taken other courses before and still felt stuck.”

But here’s the thing:

You don’t need to be perfect, you need a process.

This course meets you where you are, guides you step-by-step, and helps you build a writing habit that sticks.

You don’t have to figure it out alone!

👋 Meet Your Mentor!

I'm Robert Rodriguez, a media composer, YouTuber, and educator who's passionate about helping composers like you build sustainable & fulfilling careers.

Over the past few years, I’ve had the privilege of working with over 100 composers through the ThinkSpace Orchestral Composition Bootcamp, my own mentorship programs, and 1:1 coaching. I’ve collaborated with top sample developers like Cinesamples, EastWest, and Westwood Instruments and I’ve grown a YouTube channel of 4K+ subscribers where I share practical insights, tools, and strategies for building a modern composing career.

 I’ve helped composers go from stuck and overwhelmed to actually writing again. Not by adding more tools, but by helping them find clarity, structure, and confidence in their process.

Some realized, for the first time, what kind of music truly fits their strengths. Others stopped overthinking and finally finished music they were proud to share. That’s the kind of progress I care most about and what this course is here to help you create!

📣 How I've Helped Other Composers

 

So

How Much Does Composer Odyssey Foundations Cost?

The truth is:

  • 🎓 A semester of composition or film scoring at a university can cost $3,000–$5,000

  • 🎹 A single high end sample library might run you $400–$800 (and it won’t magically help you write better music.)

  • 🎟️ A single, non-tuition Berklee Online class- $1,290, and you’ll still walk away without a long-term process.

But Composer Odyssey Foundations gives you a complete, practical system for:

  • Writing more music — consistently

  • Finishing what you start

  • Building real momentum in your composing career

  • And doing it all with structure, clarity, and confidence

Not Sure? It's 100% Risk Free!

I created Composer Odyssey Foundations because I’ve seen how many composers feel stuck... not because they lack talent, but because no one ever gave them a system that actually works!

This course is the system I wish I had when I started and I stand behind its value fully!

That’s why your enrollment comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Go through the course. Watch the lessons. Try the exercises.

And if you realize it’s not the right fit for you, just send me an email within 30 days of purchase and I’ll issue a full refund. No questions asked. No hard feelings.

I only want your investment if it truly helps you grow.

Simple as that!

I created this course because I know what it feels like to want this so badly…

To say,

“I’m ready to take composing seriously”

and then get stuck staring at your DAW, tweaking the setup, or giving up before you even begin.

I’ve been there.

And after working with so many composers on calls, in feedback sessions, in mentorships, I realized we weren’t lacking talent or passion.

We were just missing a system. A rhythm.

A way to actually follow through!

Composer Odyssey Foundations is everything I know now about writing, finishing, and sharing music. And doing it in a way that actually feels good and sustainable.

If you’re ready to stop overthinking, stop doing it all alone, and finally build real momentum in your composing life…

I’d love to support you inside the course!

You don’t have to do this perfectly. You just have to begin!
