Music industry experts recently came together for UK PRO’s PRS Members’ Day including a session on tips from top creators on how to succeed in sync.

Experts including **Roni Size, Portishead** and **Massive Attack** offered tips on how to generate income from music creation, including gaining exposure, pitching new music, and how to approach sync opportunities in TV, film and video games.

#### **How To Succeed in Sync: 4 tips for top Music Creators**

1. **Accurate metadata is essential.** Make sure works are correctly registered with PRS and know your writer and publishing splits. Songwriters and composers can learn more about the importance of metadata via the [Get Paid Guide](https://zwly9k6z.r.us-east-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2Fgetpaidguide.co.uk%2F/1/010001929fd4ad2d-c6ddbd50-4ffe-4fd4-87fd-ec893d5f06d1-000000/R-AjSes3gdnxmwWAPDr1rPgIAmQ=396?ref=hypebot.com).
2. **Be discoverable.** Music supervisors are regularly on the hunt for new music. Regularly update biographies and contact information across online channels.
3. **Make sure music is ‘sync-ready’.** Music which has been recorded, mixed and mastered to a high standard (in a home or professional studio) is more likely to get synched. It’s great practice to have instrumentals, ‘clean’ versions and stems.
4. **Create a pitch**. Do research on what a music supervisor is currently working on, and only pitch if it is genuinely relevant to that project. Briefly introduce yourself, include a short version of a bio, links to music, genre(s) and keywords for each track.
