New Feature: Submission Dashboard for Artists

Posted by Mike McCready | August 10th, 2015 | No responses

Today we launch another feature – this one is for the artist community and it will help them keep better track of their submissions, instantly know if they’ve had previous interactions with a particular industry professional, and easily identify if submissions have been made to a particular opportunity.

You can see this dashboard (assuming you’ve made a submission or two already) by clicking here.

We hope you love it!

Seeking Music for the film ‘Restore Me’ – Exclusive Music Xray placement

I’m the lead music supervisor on the upcoming film Restore Me and I want to give an exclusive opportunity to Music Xray artists and composers (guaranteed placement). Please submit your best work for consideration.

Project: Restored Me (film) (IMDb Link)

A troubled ex-con joins the colorful crew of an old movie theater and begins to rebuild his life, only to find his faith is tested when he learns the theater he has grown to love is not what it seems.

Scene Description: Julio (main character) is at his job, the historic ‘Escalante Movie Theater’, having a conversation with a co-worker.

Song Description: Looking for a song (any genre) that will be playing through the PA speakers/system in the movie theater. Looking for lobby sounding music. Imagine the song being on a playlist on Spotify, not elevator music but more radio leaning. It can be an instrumental as well.

I try to keep these projects organized here on Music Xray so please submit to me here. Thanks.
