Forward >> LIGHT DRAMEDY INSTRUMENTAL CUES

Post by steveprobst » Sun Mar 28, 2021 7:35 am

2x's the Pizzi fun!





Lots of LIGHT DRAMEDY INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a Music Library with a great history of Reality TV placements!

Please submit Mid-to-Up-Tempo Instrumental Cues that would fall within the general stylistic wheelhouse of the following references:

Tyler Cameron's Massage Prank | The Bachelor (from 3:00 to 3:58)

"Sneaky Snitch" by Kevin MacLeod

RHONJ Season 11 Premiere (from 6:45 to 7:02)

Please submit well-composed, LIGHT Dramedy Instrumental Cues that could work well in quirky and funny scenes in the context of Reality TV shows. Craft your pieces around a singular motif, and create a sense of forward-movement and dynamics by layering instrumentation in and out as they progress. Instrumentation in the same general vein of the references will suit your submissions well. Be sure to avoid submitting anything that sounds too busy, as it could interfere with a scene’s dialog. Your production and any and all software sounds you use need to be polished and modern, as well.

TAXI Tip: This library needs a bunch of Instrumental Cues in this style; so if you’ve got the goods, don’t be shy about submitting multiple pieces for this opportunity!

All submissions should be about 90 seconds to 2 minutes long (give or take) with non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings. Do NOT copy the examples in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, texture, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers a NON-EXCLUSIVE, 50/50 split. You’ll split any upfront sync fees 50/50. You'll keep 100% of the Writer's share. The Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright to submit for this pitch. Please submit as many Instrumental Cues as you’d like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Wednesday, March 17th, 2021. TAXI Dispatch # D210317LD

Very nice of you to say. Not sure how to answer that. Every time I write one I have to believe my ear is getting better. I reeeeally listen to the pitch examples. I don't overthink the melodies too much. Think I read that idea somewhere.

Guess I sorta answered your question. :lol:
