Thanks for the view

Thanks for stoppin by the blog. I haven't really updated since I got back from Atlanta. I'm blaming it on the jet lag etc. Actually, as soon as I got back I had A LOT of work I had to start getting knocked away. I have recently joined the roster of a publishing company who places music with film, TV, video games, etc. The way that works is that I will get an email or emails explaining what is needed. This publishing company works with MANY record labels, film production companies, music supervisors and so on. The client needing music for say their show, film, game, etc, will contact the publishing company and tell them exactly what they are needing to fit the scene, trailer, and so on. From that point, the publisher reaches out to "US", the producers/composers and songwriters, and tell us what is needed, for what show, and the deadline. They don't go in to too much detail sometimes, other than an alien invasion type trailer, or a new show on Disney/Nick/MTV, etc.. From that point, we just start the creating process and once done, we submit our material back to the publisher and from there, the publisher shows the client the material, and in the perfect world, the client purchases the work and that is a placement for that job!! So as i mentioned, as soon as I got back from Atlanta, I was blessed with a few shows needing music, a movie trailer, and a commercial. So now its the waiting game time and turning on the FAITH that these placements are landed.
