An expert panel of music supervisors including Morgan Rhodes, Megan Barbour and Brooke Wentz, the discussion revolved around the epicenter of music supervision \u2014 from their favorite upcoming artists to common misconceptions about what their day to day looks like (<em>no it\u2019s not all  just pitching one song then kicking back over beers with the film crew). <\/em><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">While getting music rights is imperative for any music supervisor working in the TV &amp; film industry, the panel echoed a core music supervision responsibility they all share: it\u2019s not merely about finding music that brings the visuals to life but searching for songs that punctuate the director\u2019s overall message without interference. <\/h2>\n<div\n        class=\"\n          image-block-outer-wrapper\n          layout-caption-below\n          design-layout-inline\n          combination-animation-none\n          individual-animation-none\n          individual-text-animation-none\n        \"\n        data-test=\"image-block-inline-outer-wrapper\"\n    ><\/p>\n<figure\n            class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"\n            style=\"max-width:1500.0px;\"\n        ><\/p>\n<div\n                style=\"padding-bottom:66.73332977294922%;\"\n              class=\"\n                image-block-wrapper\n                has-aspect-ratio\n              \"\n              data-animation-role=\"image\"\n          ><br \/>\n            <noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-license-music-for-video.jpg\" alt=\"how-to-license-music-for-video.jpg\" \/><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"thumb-image lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-license-music-for-video.jpg\" data-image=\"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-license-music-for-video.jpg\" data-image-dimensions=\"1500x1001\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"how-to-license-music-for-video.jpg\" data-load=\"false\" data-image-id=\"5cafa8084192020ad45aa832\" data-type=\"image\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1000px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1000\/667;\" \/>\n          <\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<h2 style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">\u201cMy interest is always about serving the story,\u201d says Morgan Rhodes, LA-based music supervisor. \u201cI come from an indie film background, this is sort of how I got into the game; I don\u2019t know what it took for that filmmaker to get to the point of having their film in festivals, so the last thing I want to do is throw my own agenda on it. Sometimes it\u2019s a great song, but it might not be a great song for that moment. But if it <em>is<\/em> a great song while serving and carrying the moment, then that\u2019s what I\u2019m about.\u201d <\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">The topic of jumping through hoops of approval processes and music clearances inevitably come up, but there\u2019s a larger pain point that each panel speaker has encountered too many times to count. Music supervisor, Brook Wentz echoes a passionate plea to the audience, specifically addressing the musical artists keen to explore the world of music licensing.<\/h2>\n<div\n        class=\"\n          image-block-outer-wrapper\n          layout-caption-below\n          design-layout-inline\n          combination-animation-none\n          individual-animation-none\n          individual-text-animation-none\n        \"\n        data-test=\"image-block-inline-outer-wrapper\"\n    ><\/p>\n<figure\n            class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"\n            style=\"max-width:300.0px;\"\n        ><\/p>\n<div\n                style=\"padding-bottom:124.65753173828125%;\"\n              class=\"\n                image-block-wrapper\n                has-aspect-ratio\n              \"\n              data-animation-role=\"image\"\n          ><br \/>\n            <noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/img_5f0e88f7ea8a4.png\" alt=\"movie-background-music\" \/><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"thumb-image lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/img_5f0e88f7ea8a4.png\" data-image=\"https:\/\/www.marmosetmusic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/img_5f0e88f7ea8a4.png\" data-image-dimensions=\"300x449\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5100446428571429,0.75\" alt=\"movie-background-music\" data-load=\"false\" data-image-id=\"5cafa948ee6eb033f1b7f456\" data-type=\"image\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/449;\" \/>\n          <\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<h2 style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">\u201cIf you want us to use your music, the number one thing you need to have is contact information that you actually respond to,\u201d says Wentz. \u201cIf you\u2019re not reachable, you\u2019re not going to get the gig.\u201d <\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">Music supervisors unarguably are at the forefront of music discovery, their roles so closely entwined with how quickly an emerging artist\u2019s can enter the spotlight of recognition. Apart from the hurdles of negotiating with copyright holders for bigger named artists, there\u2019s a resounding commitment for finding and helping artists catch a break. It\u2019s something that aligns with Marmoset\u2019s mission when helping clients license music for video (or creating original music) \u2014 it\u2019s the consciousness effort to do right by artists first and foremost, before all else. <\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">\u201cOne of the things I really like about indie artists is they <em>get <\/em>placement,\u201d Rhodes says. \u201cThey understand that it is sort of the new A&amp;R \u2014 sync is a way to get noticed. You can get discovered in the blink of an episode.\u201d<\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">Missed this special community education event?
