All About Sync

Want to write songs for film and TV? 

If you want to position your songwriting for placements in the film, TV, & ad industries, you must be prepared!  SYNC, short for ‘synchronization’, is one of the potentially lucrative income streams for songwriters, composers and musicians. 

With all the streaming shows now available, sync is a burgeoning arena for song placement. If you’re good at it, and know what you’re doing, there is good money to make.

That being said, you have to know what you are doing.  You can’t just go firing off your work to music supervisors and shows, there is a REAL art to it, and a process you must follow if you want to be successful.
