Working in the entertainment industry can be challenging and at times, extremely stressful when you are trying to generate a profit. Making money from music placement is one way to not only earn an income, but it also helps to expose artists or specific songs that you represent to a much wider audience. Making money from music placement can be done by setting a price or using a written contract or agreement. When you want to begin making money from having your music places in movies, shows and even documentaries, working together with a music law firm and attorneys who specialize in entertainment is highly recommended.
Understand Your Music
When you want to have your music placed in an upcoming television show, movie or a documentary, knowing the type of mood and genre your music is helps with placement and receiving positive feedback. Having a clear understanding of the type of music you want to share and have placed within various forms of media is a way for you to pitch appropriately and only with fitting material. Avoid pitching music that does not fit the overall theme or style of a show or movie you are interested in.
Create Targeted Content
Creating targeted content when you are producing music can help to increase your chances of receiving offers and options when you are trying to have your music placed in a commercial, television show, movie or other form of video. If you want to have your music placed in a comedy show, be sure to set the proper mood and target the songs you create to blend or match well with various scenes and scenarios in the show itself. Understanding the type of content that is needed for the show you are pitching to land will help you to increase the chances of finding success when you begin searching for music placement offers and deals.
Research the show, movie or other video production you are interested in earning music placement in to set the mood and determine the overall theme of the production before submitting samples or creating songs of your own that are relevant and fitting.
Networking and Making Contact
Networking with music professionals, producers and those who work in television and with video is highly recommended to build a name and reputation for yourself in the industry. The more you network and ask additional business associates for referrals, the more requests you may receive in the future to provide music for a specific type of media. In addition to attending music-related conferences and events, you can also research those involved in the music industry online to make contact via email, telephone and even with the use of social media.
Provide a Portfolio
Providing a portfolio in the form of demo tapes or an online library is an ideal way to appeal to those who may be potentially interested in placing your music into their video production. The more of your work you have available to showcase, the easier it will be to obtain clients and to get yourself noticed regardless of the style of music you are interested in creating. Keep your portfolio updated and as organized as possible to share relevant music that is fitting for the type of placement you are seeking with a movie or television show.
Why Hiring an Attorney is Essential
Working together with a music law firm and legal specialists who focus on the entertainment industry is necessary to keep yourself truly protected financially and legally, especially when you are licensing music or any kind to be placed within another form of media and shown to an audience. Ensuring all of the contracts and written agreements you have in place with any company are legitimate and protect you and your rights is the job of an attorney who specializes in working with music rights and distribution.
Benefits of an Attorney
When you hire an attorney from a music law firm, you will gain access to more information about the music industry, your rights and the legal protection you have when you begin signing agreements to have your music placed in video. An attorney is able to review any agreements and contracts you have with producers and distributors to ensure your rights to any music you want to sell and the amount of royalties you will be paid for the placement. You can negotiate the price of the music placement based on your success and the advisement of the attorney you have hired.
