Please listen to the following examples to point you in the right stylistic direction for this pitch:
"In The Mood" by Glenn Miller
"From The Bottom Of My Heart" by The Harry James Orchestra feat. Frank Sinatra
"Sometimes I'm Happy" by Benny Goodman
He's looking for Songs and/or
Instrumentals featuring the kind of instrumentation typical to this
genre such as: clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, double bass,
drums, keyboards, electric guitars, guitars, strings, etc. Give him full
sounding Songs and/or Instrumentals that feature a tight rhythm
section that supports a loose, flowing, improvisational, wind or brass
section. Your submission will be used as background source music (in a
dancehall or from a radio) for a flashback scene in this film.
You can submit ORIGINAL pieces **OR** material that's in the Public Domain. You do NOT have to submit an authentic vintage master recording for this pitch. Recently recorded Songs and/or Instrumentals that have been made to sound vintage could work very well. Please do NOT submit anything that sounds stiff or MIDI-driven. It's important that your submission has the authentic character and feel like the Standards you could find in The Great American Songbook.
If you submit a song with a vocal performance, please be sure your lyric themes have Universal lyrics. Avoid references to specific dates, names, times, places, brands, etc. Lyric themes about twerking, cell phones, Vanilla Ice, etc., probably won't work well for this pitch ;-) Keep your lyric themes true to topics relevant to the popular culture of the '30s -'50s era.
The estimated license fee for this is $1,000 - $5,000.
This is a Direct-to-Music Supervisor placement, so you'll keep 100% of
the sync fee and any applicable performance royalties. No Publisher
Splits. You'll also keep 100% ownership of all your original rights! You
must own or control 100% of the Master and Copyright to pitch for this
opportunity, unless you submit a track that's Public Domain.
In this case, you'll need to own or control 100% of the Master. Please do not copy or rip off the referenced artists or compositions in any way, shape, or form. Broadcast Quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). All songs will be screened on a Yes/No basis. No full critiques. Please submit 1-3 songs no later than MONDAY, August 25th, by 2pm (PDT). TAXI #U140825BB www.taxi.com Good luck!
