There are so many steps and industry professionals that will bend their ears around a track that has the potential to be used in their Trailer, TV or Advertising campaign. What makes this industry so hard is that you don’t just have to impress one person. You have to impress a series of people from multiple companies before you get that wonderful email or phone call telling you that you just landed a sync.

The good news is that there’s so much media being created now that the chances of everybody living in a happy wonderland with lots of syncs is not out of the question. If you can consistently write great music and be reliable there is a place for any composer who wants to enter this industry. This episode focuses on the different stages of getting your music placed. Enjoy!

This week we’re doing something a little bit different. I’m going to run through a track that has had a number of placements but most recently was placed in entirety on the new Netflix series trailer, Hellbound.

This track is a great example of using many of the same methods a lot of composers use but because of the way it’s structured means that it becomes incredibly useful for editors in trailer structure.
