The Money You Didn't Know You Could Be Making - TV & Film Sync Placements

There is an entire world of revenue that your band could be leaving on the table, and it's called sync.
Getting a 'sync' is when a TV show or Film uses your song in their content. Chances are that you have actually discovered some of your favourite music from shows that you watch.
Well it turns out that some people make a TON of money doing this!
On this weeks episode we dive into:

• Marcus and Malcom's experiences with sync placements with Band of Rascals
• How front end and back end payments work (a fee vs. royalties)
• Understanding how important preparation is to securing a film placement
• How to leverage your network into sync opportunities inside of the film world
• and more!

Tune on it and as always, share it with a friend or bandmate!
