Expand postHi all! Thanks for joining me here to talk about using music in your production.
I have worked for much of my life on both sides of the process regarding the use of music in film & television for productions produced or distributed by Universal, WB, Miramax, MGM, Fox, IFC Films, Lionsgate, CMT, VH-1 and many others. As the head of New Brew Entertainment, I’ve spent several decades functioning as music supervisor for features and TV as well as a music clearance and licensing specialist and consultant on many independent films. As I have also been a writer/composer/musician, music producer, and music publisher for many years, I have a full and clear understanding from the perspectives of both the LICENSEE (the filmmaker or production company) and the LICENSOR (the songwriter, composer or music publisher).
I am eager to answer any questions you have relating to the use of music in your film. All too often, independent filmmakers find themselves in a bind, learning late into post-production that they don’t actually have permission to use the music they were planning to include in their project. What kind of permission do you need? What are the various rights that you are being given? Where and how do you get the clearance to use the music you like for your production? Who issues the licenses to keep you legal? What about distribution… what will you need to show a potential distributor when you deliver the film? BTW- If you are a music publisher, producer, songwriter or composer, you also may have questions about how all of this is supposed to work so please join in.
I know, I know… I have asked some of the questions you plan to ask, and please do ask those. But I’m sure there will be many more, as going through the process of getting proper authorization to use music in your production can sometimes be daunting. I am happy to get into the weeds regarding administrative and legal details, but no question is too simple or too basic. Please ask away! I look forward to answering all of your questions.
FYI- If you have more questions after today or want a deeper dive into the subject of music for film, I’ll be conducting a live Stage32 Webinar on January 5 at 1:00pm (PST) called THE FILMMAKERS GUIDE TO MUSIC IN MOVIES. I’d love to see you there!
You're welcome, Elena Maro . My pleasure!
FYI everyone- I am available to do music supervision and/or clearance and licensing for your project. Let me know if you'd like a consultation.
Alan Brewer can I add you and message you with my music?

If you are discussing project priorities or order, which to finance first and you are already working on all six trailers, please provide tips.
If anyone who participated in the AMA, after hearing and reading the comments, could complete a read through of my Funding for Internship and Scholarship Programs ebook today or tomorrow, less than 70 pages, technical and substance review, I would greatly appreciate it. There’s compensation for it. Ask for details when you contact me.
Based on some information obtained this week, in addition to a read through, I will have to conduct a complete edit and research of my ebook (examples bank closures, 100s of businesses closings, government budgetary issues, etc.). Almost completed. Here’s a resource to keep everyone motivated http://www.freedomwithwriting.com .
In the meantime, I will keep sharing the first edition. If you would like to assist, please advise me. On the bright side, both budget challenges were diverse resources so no worries with them.
This question is for
RB, please review my AMA messages and dm messages as well. Time sensitive. Thank you in advance.
Amanda, please respond to my direct messages that I sent in the messaging section. Thank you in advance.
How to have your projects permanently on my Stage 32 Wall? In case, they end up being on pages over 10 plus. To ensure that they are seen daily on the project and wall pages.
Thank you in advance!
Matteo - ask Stage 32 help how you can get in touch with Alexia. She might have some paid consultant availability. I'm not sure.
