Sync Licensing Guidance
Guidance on placing your music in film, television, advertising, and games through sync licensing.
Sync licensing can open significant doors for independent music, but it operates by rules most artists never learn. This guidance explains how synchronization licensing works, what music supervisors look for, and how to prepare your catalog so it is actually licensable when opportunities appear.
The service covers the practical foundations: ensuring your rights and splits are documented, preparing instrumental and clean versions, organizing metadata and contact information, and understanding what kinds of placements realistically fit your genre and catalog at this stage of your career.
Guidance is personally provided by Ruben Burgos, Architect & Founder of UMG Network Collective, who works across both music and film. That dual perspective gives artists a realistic, informed view of how their music meets the screen world.
The Objective
To prepare the artist’s catalog and knowledge for genuine sync licensing opportunities. The objective is a licensable, well-documented body of work ready when supervisors come looking.
