  • Summary or synopsis of the project description.
  • Identify any music the producers or music supervisor already have in mind for the project.
  • Discuss and suggest any specific genres or styles of music needed.
  • Note any specific soundalikes or similar music moments they would like to include.
  • What era or time period the project is based on.
  • If a certain tempo or format is needed for the music, full songs or instrumentals.
  • Discuss the type of rights they would prefer a music owner have in place.
  • Offer clearance help for any music that has multiple rights owners as an option.
  • Suggest term length options for each music license needed.
  • Determine a realistic sync fee for the project based on all the above details.
  • Finally set a deadline for music submissions that allows enough time to find the best options and complete any clearance work needed.
