Great book for getting your songs into movies Jul 06, 2006
By Fletcher Jones
I bought this book because I wanted to learn how I can get my songs into movies and tv. I heard that was the best way to make money and get exposure. This book gave me the answers and even the names of people who select music for films and tv. I already got one of my songs into a film that competed in Tribeca Film festival. Some of the writing is a little long handed but the information is really right on. If you are a songwriter who wants to get your tunes into the movies, this is the book for you.

Music Supervision will impact your career May 07, 2006
By Adam A. Johnson
This book had a direct impact on my career. From the multiple books that I have read on building a career in the music industry, this book is the most eye opening, informative, and useful of them all. It is akin to taking the brains and experience of fifty music industry vets and inserting them directly into your head. Producers, directors, composers and music supervisors are all interviewed and considered as relevant and irreplaceable players in the musical interchange within film and television production.
As a music composer I found that the real thrust of the book is the first-hand knowledge, opinions, and experience given by the many experts interviewed concerning the creation of sound, the application of sound, the development, transfer, use, discovery, and types of sound. Personally, I became fascinated by the concept of "sonic branding." I did further research and ended up envisioning and developing a "sonic services template" for design companies. I'm now doing "sonic branding" and "sonic consulting" with my own company, and the BIG ideas really only started with this book only six months ago. If you are interested in music supervision or composing you will save yourself years of mistakes as well as discover loads of opportunities by reading Music Supervision. Of course, you will need to work your fingers to the bone after you put the book down, but this is where you start. - Adam A. Johnson

SUPERVISING YOUR MUSICAL FUTURE Jun 13, 2006
By Gian Fiero
Congratulations to Ramsay Adams, David Hnatiuk, and David Weiss. They have succeeded in writing a book that is highly informative, useful, and very insightful. Whether you are interested in pursuing a career as a music supervisor, or would simply like to do research on the profession, this book will far exceed your expectations. It's an easy read that features random interviews from experienced music supervisors that candidly articulate what the primary considerations are in selecting music, and shines light on the process of "spotting" and "auditioning" songs for placement, in addition to offering helpful advice on how to deal with challenges that music supervisors face in their position such as difficulties in obtaining master, sync and mechanical licenses; working harmoniously with egotistical producers and directors; managing creative conflicts; preventing legal problems; dealing with financial constraints; and marketing their services. A great educational and reference resource.

Worth the price for the Technical Info Dec 05, 2006
By Paula Sartorius
This book is a great education in what a music supervisor does and needs to know. The spotlight interviews are informative and give the reader a practical application of the text. The technical aspects of the job were eye opening and extensive. A must read for anyone who thinks music supervision entails picking songs from an iPod and placing them to picture. I have a greater appreciation for good music supervisors after reading Music Supervision.
