Movie Music Supervisors
Motion pictures music supervision may sound like an easy job but, when done
properly, it can result in a very complex but rewarding marriage of the movie
and music industries on both the creative and business levels. The music
supervisor works very closely with the movie producer and director by making
suggestions for certain songs, artists, songwriters, and composers for the film.
She may even suggest certain songs that would meld well with the action onscreen
which, in turn, can affect the emotions of the intended movie audience.
After the producer and director make the final decisions, the music supervisor
will then oversee the entire process by facilitating all meetings with the film
personnel, coordinate the creative people, supervise the recording sessions and
help to structure and negotiate all the deals for music clearances.
If the movie is a musical, the music supervisor would get involved in the
pre-production stages of the movie in order that the pre-recorded music
will be available when filming starts.
