In this week's episode, we take a look at the DO'S and DON'TS of music supervision. A music supervisor is a person who combines music and visual media together. According to The Guild of Music Supervisors, a music supervisor is “a qualified professional who oversees all music-related aspects of film, television, advertising, video games, and other existing or emerging visual media platforms.” In the musical theatre industry, a music supervisor is often responsible for managing a team of music directors working on any number of musical productions at any one time.
Music supervisors will often narrow down their focus to a few publishing companies, agents, labels, artists that they know and trust – particularly important. This helps them get deals done more quickly and efficiently, with very little fuss.
Before you contact a music supervisor, make sure you know their work, this is especially important, I know it may sound basic. Blindly sending “listen to my music!” emails are a complete waste of their time and yours. Just like your music has its own sound, many music supervisors have their own brand and distinctive credits as well.
Demonstrate that you researched the supervisor with a crafted subject line in your initial email. If your brand of COUNTRY OR POP is perfect for a particular Netflix, Disney, or Amazon series, change up your email or social media introduction with a title, for example: “POP/Country for the nightclub scenes with band.” The music supervisor on the receiving end will very much appreciate that you are paying attention, this is good brownie points to start you off.
