5 out of 5 stars FINALLY !!! A BOOK COMPOSERS CAN UNDERSTAND !!!   December 4, 2005

Richard Jay's "How To Get Your Music In Films and TV" is a Godsend for people like me, who usually find books written by "music insiders" to be confusing.
In plain , easily understood language, Richard teaches you the "ins and outs" of the Film and TV industries, as they relate to music.
The "how" is also explained.....and this book is a rich resource of Film and TV Websites containing very valuable,"up to date" contact,,,,, and "current productions" info !!!

Ah, now here's a book that can really pay for itself many times over. RIchard Jay explains HOW HOW HOW to get your music placed in film, TV and similar outlets--instead of stringing a bunch of anecdotes about how successful he has been, like some books do. He's got websites to visit, organizations to join, tips galore in this small book. Price ranges for various uses are discussed, and this is essential for the novice. THe chapters on the basics (copyright 101, etc.) are short, so if you don't know anything at all about this business, you will want to start with something more extensive, perhaps. As for me, I've already placed a couple of cues on TV shows in the USA and Canada, but am searching for info on how to expand these sales, and how to market my music more effectively to these clients, and this book is definitely going to be helpful.


4 out of 5 stars Some good tips and cool advise...   February 9, 2008

This will help the clueless musician with absolutely no hookups or inside plugs in the film and Tv industry looking to get soundtrack or scoring work fast.

There are now many books on the marketplace that explain how to get your music into film and tv, but there are very few that can be read in a couple of hours (or on a plane ride). This book is literally a crash course in copyrights, performing rights agencies and there functions; the role of film directors; executive producers; music supervisors; clearance companies; agents; music publishers; and music brokers. His USPs (unique selling points) are simple lessons that can get musicians to think like marketers as he stresses that marketing is the most important thing in your career and he views getting your music into film and tv as means to that end. Good primer.

This book is compact and direct. I joined one of the organizations suggested which is an excellent resource for leads. A good additional for anybody who is serious about placing music in film & tv.
