Music Video Submission Helps You Get Discovered

By Timothy Davis


Videos are very powerful. With the music playing under the visuals, it can really resonate with people watching. It can be touching as people watch the visuals. Music video submission can be simple as people filming videos and are ready to have it viewed by a producer to publish it, will know how to do that. Make the instructions very simple for people to read and understand.

Promoting people who are trying to get noticed is not hard and can be very rewarding. A phone number or email address on your website can help people get in contact with you should they have any questions about submission. Leave clear instructions on your website, but also be available for help. Staff that answers the phone or emails can be a great help.

Different formats such as jpeg or mov are options for how to submit their work. Still photos are usually in jpeg format where mov files are video files. The music will have to be in a different format. Each format has its particular design to help the work be the best it can be. Technology has come a long way. Try to stay on top of advances in technology so you are on top of what people are going to want to submit.

Asking a professional to help may be a good idea. You may get overwhelmed with people wanting to submit and if you are not a technology expert, some of their questions may not be something you will know the answer to. Hire someone if you can afford it to help out with this need.

If someone submits something that you like, you should notify them and tell them that you can publish their work. Have a plan for how you are going to promote the video. You could show it on various talk shows and other places where it will be seen by a large part of the public. People just starting out will know it will take time to promote their work.

Brainstorm with other professionals can be a good way to think of some ways to break people in that you have not already thought of. You cannot do everything so reaching out for help is wise. They may know of other areas to send people's work that you have not already thought of. Ask them for their thoughts as you figure out what your plan is.

It is good to have adequate contact information for all of your people submitting work. They may leave a reel of their work along with a resume with a phone number or email address. You may need a a receptionist to organize all of the submissions for you so you can focus on selecting the videos and the method of promoting them.

It may get stressful at times trying to promote people, but try to see the reward in it. You got into this industry for a reason. Focus on that reason when you have trying days where you have to learn patience or humility. Try to learn something new about each person that you meet. Their work is a reflection of who they are.
