Hello chris happy new year!
I am indie artist from nigeria, the name is Goodchi.
Saw your mail and i would love the opportunity to get my song on sync n tv, looking forward to hearing from you.Thanks
-
Great to hear! You can license your music to TV & film from anywhere.
-
-
In the past, I’ve joined two other sync events where a gatekeeper provided the opportunity to present songs, both originals and covers, to music supervisors, and unfortunately, I felt they were a waste of my money and time. I’m curious to learn more about your panel. I’d like to know how what you offer is different from what I’ve done in the past.
-
Sorry to hear that, Caitlin. Unfortunately there are some people out there who are more interested in your pocketbook than your success. Just come out to the panel which is totally free to find out how you can connect with the right people in TV & film.

I’m happy to attend.

Hey Chris, thank you for putting this together. I’ve got a large catalog. However, I’ve not released anything much. Just one tune which was just a passion idea never promoted and another one on YT a whiiillle back. I’m wondering does an Artist needs to be out and active to get sync?
-
-
Happy new year! Would love to be considered for this. Especially with a new album coming out this year!
Thanks!
-
Perfect timing! See you there, Beth.

Hi Chris, I am currently working on some songs and getting a recording program, I play guitar, piano, bass, and write complete songs, I use to be in a band in the 90’s, and still love to write. I have some songs on my SoundCloud, they are old, I am working on new music.
-
You sound like you are ready to go in sync licensing. See you at the panel, Glen!

I’m very interested in the panel. How do I participate?

Hello Chris,
Thank you for your email and invitation. Indeed I would love to explore these opportunities. Sending best wishes 🫶☮️🎼-
Thanks, Irene. Looking forward to it!

Hi, in 2025 I placed my first couple albums with music libraries. I have been doing a lot of writing and collaborating and would love to attend your meeting with sync supervisors.
A question I would have would be in regards to upfront buyouts. Do they recommend? Pros and cons. I’m not sure if that is better suited to music library people, but it has come up in one of the deals I was offered. Thanks so much for all that you do and I look forward to the event. Cole-
I will try and fit your question in, Cole. I’ll see you there!
-
-
I’m interesterd in learning more and finding out about sync opportunities in TV and Film.

Please tell me more about this.

Have a question regarding “Work For hire” documentation.
If a collaboration includes a now deceased person, how do I acquire the required release?
Thank you for what you are doing!
All good things!-
I will see if I can fit your question in. Thanks!
-
Chris, I have a similar situation: work for hire,/deceased. Other than that, the first song I wrote, arranged in counter point, and recorded as The Fleetwoods, Number one Hit “Come Softly to me“ is now in many movies. See thefleetwoods.com. New recordings of it and top 40 hit “Graduation’s Here“ and 14 others are now streaming (Suite 16) a BILLBOARD critics pick for 10 best albums of the year. ARTIST: Gretchen Christopher. How to submit for synch?
-
-
-
Chris,
I certainly would love to be considered. Susan
-
Great to hear, Susan! Looking forward to seeing you there.
-
-
I have been wanting to get into sync for 20 years and now that I have time I want to dedicate some of it to this! I have tried and got one song published, but I barely miss the mark with other opportunities (one element of the song may be missing that the brief calls for), but I always get a compliment for producing a good song, but no sync,
-
Well you are in the right place then, Kenneth. I’ve been helping indie songwriters like you get placements in TV & film for over 15 years. See you there!
-
-
Thank you for this opportunity
-
You bet, Gwyndolyn!
-
-
Yea I would like to join in on your sync music panel.

Cool! It’s going to be great.
-
-
Would be great to attend, thanks for the invite!

Hello, I can make any music u want!
-
Just come out to the panel to find out how you can connect to the right people.
-

Hi Chris, my name is Alexandra and I go by the independent artist name Alli K. This sounds hopeful! I would like to attend to see what I can get out of this session! Please let me know how I can attend. If it’s going to be a zoom meeting. I will definitely be there! One question I have for the supervisors is this. I’ve heard in the past that a lot of advertisement agencies, and so on already have a lot of musicians in Studios preparing music for sync placements. If this is truly the case, how does an independent artist find a way to connect with the supervisors when they’re competing against the big machine? Especially if they don’t have the money backing themselves? thank you very much and I’m looking forward to connecting and hopefully moving forward somewhere! Much love and happy new year to all!
-
Yes, it is on Zoom and I will be sending the link tomorrow. To answer your question here and now in a nutshell, no companies don’t often have musicians on staff. It’s far cheaper for them to pay you for your song than hire a team of songwriters full-time. You will find out how all that works at the panel. See you there!
-
-
Thank you for the opportunity. I’m excited to be able to participate.
-
Excellent! See you there!
-
-
I’m happy to attend. Thank you
-
Great to hear, Patsy. See you there!
-
-
I got an email stating you’re looking for new music. Email me I’m open to anything
-
I am looking for new music to connect to my music supervisor friends. If you want to find out how to do that, come out to the panel.
-
-
Hi Chris, My wife (Jennifer Daniels) and I have been writing, recording, and producing our original songs for over two decades. We will be there next Sunday, and look forward to meeting you and learning more about your sync opportunities. Cheers, Jeff Neal
-
Great to hear, Jeff!

-
This sounds super interesting! I’d like to attend!

Hi Chris, I am interested in attending your sync panel. Thank you for the opportunity!
Some questions:
1) Is it best to write specifically for sync placement or rather to write just with sync in mind? In other words, can we focus on creating music that comes from our heart/is that the type of music that speaks the most/has the greatest impact on music supervisors?
2) How do we stay professional in our communications without coming across as being overly enthusiastic about our music when contacting music supervisors directly?
3) What is a reasonable amount of money to pay a sync agent for pitching our music to music supervisors?
4) What’s a good mixture of lyrics versus instrumental interludes for a sync song?
5) Is there a specific type of voice that tends to do well generally speaking for sync placements (e.g., female vs. male, high vs. low tone)?
I am happy for any of these questions to be considered and/or explored.
Thank you again, Sir.
-
Thanks for your questions, Anna. I’ll see how many of your questions I can fit.
-
-
Hello, I’m an composer who’s trying to get into Film scoring, and or music production for Games, and or anime, I’m wondering who can I meet to get a head start on this, and if there is any further steps I need to accomplish this, or at least get momentum going.
-
Great to hear, Nathan. Just come out to the panel to see how to do that. See you there!
-
-
Hello,
I’d like more info about when the panel is happening.
I’ve got a ton of material and I’m always writing more.
Thanks for the opportunity.
Happy New Year.

I’m releasing the link tomorrow along with the details, looking forward to seeing you there!

Hi Chris, I am very grateful to you and your kindness. I know that you receive a lot of emails about music and TV synchronization. I want to participate!!!
-
Awesome! See you there, Maxim.
-
-
Hi Chris. I got the email that you’re looking for new music. I definitely want to attend. I’ve had a couple sync placements before, but I really want to get in to making this my full time income, and would appreciate any advice. Look forward to hearing from you soon.
-
You are in the right place! See you at the panel.
-
-
Chris what kind of boat you on good sir? Would love to work with you! Does date of release for music affect sync worthiness? I’ve released 5 or 6 albums in the last 8 years and would love to have “older” songs considered as well as my newest stuff. Cheers!
-
I have a Beneteau Sense 50, Michael. 🙂 Release date of your music does not matter at all. See you there!
-

Dear Chris, hello from Copenhagen, Im a songwriter and vocalist, and I am curious to place songs – I have joined many songwriting trips, USA and UK, Berlin, London, and performed there, I send a link to my songs having been featured on radio and as well Us interviews (NPR).

Hi Chris and Happy New Year 😉
Thank You for doing what you do here at syncsongwriter. I have followed your work since last year. And so glad I have come across your work. My name is Krisjanis Birkmanis i compose different genres.. voice and guitar, calm as well as upbeat electronic and ambient. When I put my attention to it there feels like always something wants to come out. I know its a bit of a luck game but I do love songwriting and no matter what I would still do it. And I would be honoured to share my work with you and your friends in film and tv. Maybe its exactly what they are looking for. I would like to to know more of course. Thanks again.
Sincerely, Krisjanis-
Great! Come out to the panel to find out how to do that. See you there!
-
-
Looking to get in to it. Let’s go. I need connections. Hope this is it. I have three albums of material ready to go and more in the pipeline.
-
It sounds like you are ready to go, David. See you at the panel!
-
-
Hi Chris
Great to see you still doing the great work in sync. Am excited to be releasing new music in 2026.My question is how different is the process on the music supervisor and musician side of things considering the huge shift with AI both in music creation and in general toolkits in the industry?
-
Thanks for the question, Ryan. I will try to fit it in. See you there!
-
-
Would love to attend! But, I live in Sweden so time difference might be a problem. What date and time (and time zone)? ): Also, can one of my songwriter friends attend also?
-
It is on Sunday, January 11 at 10am PT so should be in the evening for you. Just keep an eye on your inbox for the link.
-
-
Yes, I would like to attend.

Great to hear! See you there.

See you there, Raymond!

Hello, Chris. I plan to be there (virtually – I’m caregiver to my parents) and appreciate you creating this opportunity to learn, as I readily admit I know absolutely nothing about getting a song placed.
One question I’d ask if physically present would be do these supervisors prefer songs with lyrics or instrumental tunes. I’m sure it’s MUCH more nuanced than the binary presented by my question (I’m sure things like what mood needs to be conveyed, what story needs to be told, etc matter most), but I’d be curious just to hear their instinctive preferences.
Thanks again.
-
Great, I’ll see you there, Lewis. The answer is more nuanced than that and I will be sure to make sure it gets asked for you.
-
-
Hello Chris, Happy New Year indeed.
I’ve just made four albums available that can be picked apart and used for anything. Different styles and voices. Lots to chose from and more to come I’d be honored to participate.
Warmest Regards,
John Douglas Pritchard-
You are in a good spot then, John. See you there!
-
-
Hello,
I would be interested in opportunities to place my music in TV and Movies.
Just to be clear I am not interested in taking any courses or purchasing any programs from you.
I am just looking for real opportunities.
Peace
Patrick-
The panel is free, so just to come out and see hear from the people who place music like yours all the time.
-
-
Hey Chris. I’ve attended your workshops and found them super informative and valuable. Wanted to say thanks so much for gifting us with them. I’m hoping to be able to afford your program this year. It’s in my list of goals!
Thanks for all you do,
LizzyK-
It would be great to finally work with you, Lizzy, and get your music heard by the right people!

Hi Chris, thanks for the email and invite to the Sync Songwriter Music Supervisor Panel (no this isn’t an AI generated response, I’m just a bit of a stickler for detail 😂). Sounds like an opportunity not to be missed! Please count me in! James.
-
Sounds great, James! See you there.
-
-
Thank you. I will definitely be attending. I would like to know how I submit a whole library for sync. I’m have been running a dance label and have 200% rights to the music and would like to get placement for sync opportunities.
-
Good hear your are coming out, Bashar. We’ll definitely be talking about where the supervisors get their indie music.
-
-
Hello, I’m humbled to be offered this invitation, As a music composer I am interested in how to generate income on a constant basis, and ultimately make music for anime, video games etc. . So I’m asking if there are any extra steps needed to at least get the momentum going.
-
You are in the right place, Nathan. Just come out to the panel and you will find out what the next best step you should take is.
-

Hi Chris
I’m Steve, a passionate indie songwriter who thrives on crafting stories through music. My songwriting process often begins with deeply personal experiences, and I enjoy creating lyrics that resonate on multiple levels.
For instance, my song “[Song Title]” explores themes of [insert themes], with lines like “[insert impactful lyric]” that aim to evoke strong emotions. Collaborating with artists such as [notable collaborators] has enriched my style and broadened my perspective.
I believe my work could beautifully complement projects like [specific TV shows or films], given its narrative depth and emotional resonance. You can listen to my songs on [insert links], where I focus on storytelling and lyrical depth.
I would love to discuss how my music might fit into your upcoming projects. Thank you for considering my work!
Best,
Steven Thomas -
Hi Chris!
I will be attending the meeting.
If possible to ask supervisors, what’s the most important: metadata info other than obvious tittle ect. Or how the songs are mastered?
Wish you a great new years !Best regards
Jon-
Great question! I’ll see if I can fit that in, Jon. See you there.
-
-
Hi Chris! Would definitely love to attend, I feel like I missed where to find the date and time of the event though 😅 thanks!
-
It’s this coming Sunday, January 11, but just keep an eye on your inbox to get the link for it.
-
-
Thank you, Chris for the invite! I will be aiming to join virtually. Question for the panel. When looking for songs for Film and TV, are they more interested in the music itself or does the lyric aspect have a major role to play?
-
Perfect! Thanks for the question, Lloyd.
-
-
Hey Chris! I would love to attend – how do we get access to the link?
-
I am releasing the link tomorrow, Elle. See you there!
-
-
Yes I would love to attend. I logged into your live stream last year too. I’ve been writing / producing mainly for libraries. Would love to branch out to directly music supervisors for placements.
-
I think that is a much better move, Jason. Looking forward to it!
-
-
Hello Chris Thank you for your Consideration, and Reaching out 🙏
We are TIME 4 CHANGE

Hi! Thank you for sharing this opportunity. I create original music and I’d be really interested in sync songwriting. I’d love to learn more and see if my music could be a good fit. Looking forward to hearing from you.
-
Sounds great, Michal. Just come out to the panel this Sunday!
-
-
Hi Chris,
Thank you so much for letting us be a part of this amazing opportunity!
Is it common for a song to be used in multiple sync projects, over time, or is it more common for a song to be used a single time in a single project by a music supervisor?Thanks again–I will absolutely be attending virtually!
-
The same song can get used multiple times, there really is no limit. See you at the panel on Sunday!
-
-
I am definitely interested, Chris!
-
👍
-
-
I’m currently working on two (qty 2) LP album projects, plus one EP. Approximate mix is original works (70%) to covers (30%). I already have one album behind me with 16 originals/ 17 songs. At this point in my life, I do not want to sit around hope someone discovers what I believe includes a substantial amount of cinematic material worthy of film scores.
Ready for your help. Let’s get started.
-
Sounds like a plan, Russell! See you next Sunday.
-
-
Hello Chris,
thank you for the invite and looking forward to gaining new insight. New music. I have some that I’d love to share.-

Hi Chris
I’m Steve, a passionate indie songwriter who thrives on crafting stories through music. My songwriting process often begins with deeply personal experiences, and I enjoy creating lyrics that resonate on multiple levels.
For instance, my song “We Miss You” explores themes of Love and Loss, with lines like “Your Spirit lives in all of us, I know that sorrow will turn to joy eventually” that aim to evoke strong emotions. Collaborating with artists such as Jessie Jukebox, YStress, T9 and PM has enriched my style and broadened my perspective.
I believe my work could beautifully complement projects like Chicago Fire, 9-1-1, Boston Blue and Raising Kanan, given its narrative depth and emotional resonance. You can listen to my songs on https://open.spotify.com/album/6j2BYZEcZBZUJEw4lrx7jV?si=duLzSAmjQQ6qXDN3WQ4Zwg, where I focus on storytelling and lyrical depth.
I would love to discuss how my music might fit into your upcoming projects. Thank you for considering my work!
Best, Steven Thomas-
Hi Steven, I unfortunately can’t listen to all the music that gets sent to me and I am not an agent. I connect indie songwriters like you to music supervisors. If you want to find out how to do that, just come out to the panel and I’ll see you there.
-
I unfortunately can’t listen to all the music that gets sent to me, Steven, but come out to the panel. There you will find out how to connect with the right people in TV & film with your music. See you there!
-
I unfortunately can’t listen to all the the music that gets sent to me. Your next best step is to come out to the panel to find out how to connect with the people who can use your music. See you there!

Wow – I just saw/heard about this. It would be an honor to be picked but I see it’s a week from today. I assume the next session would be…a year from today, or sooner?
Looks very informative, interesting & fun!
-
I only do this once a year, Jack. Hope to see you there!
-
-
Ok you got me interested Chris. I’ll hop on the broadcast if I’m free…
-
LET’S GOOOO!!!!
-
Hello – thank you for this opportunity. I’ve signed up. Below are my questions: When is the panel 1. What key characteristics or elements make a song attractive and suitable for sync licensing opportunities?
2. Could you share insights on the typical fee ranges or rate structures for different types of sync placements (e.g., film, TV, ads, streaming)?
3. From a business standpoint, what materials, rights clearances, or preparations do you expect artists or producers to have ready before pitching a song for sync?
-
Would be honored to appear virtually
-
Hi Chris. I’m really excited about this opportunity to learn more about the sync process and to hear from the people who actually source the music.
I’m an indie rock / alt rock artist from the UK, and would really like to know if my kind of music is ever needed / requested?
Many thanks for this opportunity, Joe, Asgard Raven. -
Hello Chris,
Thank you for your email and invitation. I would love to attend and connect with the music supervisors.
All the best, Robert-
Great to hear, Robert!

I’m writing again because my comment wasn’t listed here so I thought maybe it got deleted so I’m trying again. I write under the pen name Tony “Buck” Buckner. I am a songwriter with many years of honing my craft, taking lessons, reading what I can. I use a professional studio to produce my music and although I only have three songs streaming, I’m about to send another to the studio this month and I have a ready to produce library of 25+ songs that does not include songs I am currently working on. My drive is simple. To tell a story through the lyrics and music I write. I do this by making myself completely vulnerable to my self, past, spirit, and life and I do this unapologetically. I am hoping that I am considered and I look forward to hearing from you.
Cheers
Tony “Buck” Buckner -
What do I do to sign on?

Hi Chris,
It’s generous of you to organise this panel at no cost for Indie artists, thank you. I’d be interested to learn about the latest regulations in AI generatedt music and AI artists and how this changes the ecosystem for sync in 2026.
Looking forward to the panel.
Thanks,
Ian -
Thanks Chris for the invite…Looking forward to the opportunity.
-
I’m ready to attend. It sounds so reviving. I’m excited already.

Hi Chris…Music is my life…my calling…my purpose for living on this Earth. I have been writing songs since I was twelve years old and I am still crafting them today. I have been in various bands since my teenage years. I am 74 years young. I believe music keeps me that way…young. Recently I sent a couple of tracks to an old co writer/band member friend of mine who orchestrated the songs and I believe with all that is within me that these two tracks could be something the music supervisors could use a movie track. One song was written for a friend who passed away early in life and would work well in a funeral scene. The second is a descriptive ballad of sorts that tells the story of a homeless bag lady…a single mom and a teenager hooked on drugs. I would very much like to join your webinar. Thank you and a happy and blessed 2026 to you and your family!
-
I would love to join. I have written many songs, some that could work in tv and movie productions Let me know what I need to do!! Thanks
-
Looking forward to be part of this amazing event!!

Hi Chris,
Thanks so much, very interested in attending this panel!
I’m coming from a background of being a military musician, was in the U.S. Army Blues for 10 and a half years – used my G.I. Bill to get an education in software development so that I could fund my art habit. I’ve found multiple interviews of you on YouTube and appreciate the way you talk about the sync industry – in particular the networking component, building out your contacts as a songwriter and as much as possible eliminate the middle man between your music and the music supervisors who can place your songs. You’ve mentioned generally how you made your own connections through attending events and conferences, and I’m generally curious to hear more from the panel about how they would be receptive to new professional connections (maybe direct connections? or as direct as possible) to indie artists looking to license their music.
To this end I have two questions for the panel:
1) Where do the panel “hang out” (i.e. in physical space, online etc.) and where do they go if they’re looking to make new professional connections to get access to indie artists music.
2) I think I’m understanding correctly that getting a song licensed has to do with how well that song fits the context for which it’s being licensed, right? In other words, when a network decides to do a show or movie they must release to the production team the budget, and likely there’s some subset of that budget that can be allocated to licensing new music – and to this end, the producers of the show likely create some criteria for “what they’re looking for” in music they’re looking to license. And, if I understand correctly, the job of the music supervisor (i.e. our panel!) is to find that music and not overspend for the project. My question is, as an indie artist, how can I be the yoda (i.e. the guide who has the answer) if the music supervisor is Luke Skywalker (i.e. the hero in crisis). How can I “signal” to the music supervisors that I have what they need? What industry mechanisms are in place for me to leverage to this end?
Thanks! And Very Respectfully,
Michael
-
Hi Chris,
Happy New Year to you.
Thank you for your email and invitation. I would love to attend and connect with the music supervisors.
Kind regards,
Tamsin -
These are great questions, Michael, and we will definitely be hitting those during the panel. Looking forward to seeing you there!

-
Hi Chris and thanks for the intro. This is what I am working towards and would love the opportunity.
Samantha -
Hi Chris,
Happy New Year! I’m happy to attend 😊 -
Where is this being held? I would love the knowledge and I really like watching your videos. How can I sign up and thank you for the invite. I am currently getting my website together.
-
I am interested. Would like to be considered for this
-
Thanks for the invitation! I’m interested.
-
Chris, thanks for the invitation. Like some others I’ve licensed a lot of instrumental cues through libraries over many years but I have a large catalog of indie music that I’d love to get in front of music supervisors. Looking forward to learning more!

Hi Chris, I would like to show up, is this a zoom meeting or in person? Wish I was in southern California, I’m in northern California, anyways I would like to attend, Art. By the way we’re #1 in cotati,
https://www.reverbnation.com/1aftershock -
Thanks Chris, count me in!
My main question would be: is there much love for avantgarde/experimental instrumental music in the this sphere? My music can be very abstract at times but I like to think not too alienating… can see it working perhaps somewhat like a Bird Man score but on guitar…
Cheers, and greetings from Tasmania,

Hey Chris, What’s good guy!? I’m Ronnie and I come from a musical background of about 66 years of experience. I taught myself music from a rubber band when I was around six years old. From that, I taught myself the concept of playing the guitar. I played my first guitar chord when I was the age of 7 years old. I had yet to own a guitar. I honed my skills by stopping by friends’ houses who owned guitars but they didn’t have an idea of how to play the guitar. I began showing them how to play their own guitar. I played my first gig at 13 years old and was paid a lumping amount of $2.75 and felt like a millionaire. That introduced the idea of getting paid for playing music to me. So through the years, I played with countless of musicians while yet developing my musical abilities. Now at 72 years old, I’m still enjoying and loving what I have developed through the years. I am now a producer with my own home studio who has a huge catalog of original tracks just waiting to be heard by music supervisors.
-
I have music I would love to hear in a movie
-
Yes, I would love to participate. I am looking forward to hearing about all the details. It is hard to get licensed on your own. Thank you for the potential opportunity.

Hi Chris! My friend and I (for over 50 years) decided to finally start recording all of our songs. We’ve already got a few up on Spotify, YT, Amazon Music, and iTunes but we need that real push. Sounds like your offer can help us get there! Looking forward to learning more about the session.

Hello, thanks for the invite! I am interested in attending and would like more details. A question I have would be how do the supervisors see AI fitting in – or not fitting in – to film and tv soundtracks? I’m trying not to be discouraged with the prevalence of AI music – will it just take over? Thanks!

Hi Chris,
This sounds awesome! I would love to attend. Can you please send me the zoom link when it is available. Thanks so much, and Happy New Year to you!
Cheers, Rich -
Howdy, Im a USAF veteran and ever since I got out of the military I’ve been pursuing music and trying to learn as much as I can. Sync is what I really want to get into. Id love to go to this thing

Hi! I’m definitely interested. I have so many songs that have yet to find their homes. Thank you for this invite!

Oh! My apologies on not adding a question in on my first comment. I just finished watching your video and heard that part. A Q I have is how do I get on the short list for music supervisors? I lived in Nashville for a decade plugging away writing and recording. I have a fairly large catalog but I got burned out pitching because like you said – it’s impersonal and is like trying to win the lottery. I want to be more strategic at developing relationships w the right music folks who will want to keep coming to me for more product for their projects!

Hi Chris
I’m excited to have the opportunity to meet with these high-powered people who might be interested in running with my music.
I just received my first (humble) royalty check, so I’m pumped about furthering my songwriting career.
Sincerely,

Hi Chris,
I’m very interested in placing my music with Sync supervisors. I’m not exactly clear what the panel will offer other than general info on how the process works but I’m game. I’m about to put out my fourth album. Lyric-driven Americana with some jazz and blues.
Thanks. I appreciate your enthusiasm!

I am very interested in participating in this. I am an amateur musician and I play the oud (middle eastern lute). My tastes in music range from Middle Eastern music to rock, classical, blues, and some jazz and some pop. Please tell me how I can participate in this.

Be good to hook up with you after making initial contact with you last year .

Hope to see you at the panel, Alan. It’s going to be so valuable for indie songwriters trying to figure out how to get their music out in the world in a much bigger way than they have been.

Sounds great, is there a market for retro sounding music and instrumentals?

Hi Chris, and Happy New Year! Count me in.
I’m just getting into sync and am interested in things they are looking for and (maybe more importantly) things to avoid (i.e. common mistakes, gotchas, etc.).
Thanks again!

Happy New Year Chris,
Thanks, very interested in signing up for the panel.

Hey Chris! Looking forward to the panel. I’m an independent singer/songwriter from Spotsylvania, VA and I’m looking forward better opportunities to get my music to work for me. I’ve got a relatively large catalog of music and streaming/physical sales just don’t cut it anymore to supplement income when I’m not touring. Hoping that sync licensing could be just that opportunity! Looking forward to hearing from you & the panel. Do I just come back to the blog on Sunday? How do I sign up?
-
Thank you so much Chris! I will be there!
-
Yeah Chris, ,
All good stuff. I’m a former backstage pass member,,love your msgs,, I registered for the panel so I’ll see you there. At one time during backstage pass, you were going to do a recording workshop to become a better engineer/producer. I would love to sign up for that if you ever do that.
Thanks, -
Hi Chris, Thanks for taking the initiative in setting up this opportunity. I’m interested in attending your event to find out more about the sync world, and to hopefully dispel some of the negative myths and/or realities of the music biz. I was signed to a sync publishing deal a little while ago, and submitted over 100 tunes in good faith, only to have my contract nullified and voided for some mysterious reason. In the meantime, they still have my tunes. So my question to the panel is this: What are the markers of a legitimate sync deal versus the “tells” of a bogus deal? There will always be song sharks in the music biz, so a good repellant is required. ~GK
