Making a Scene Presents - Web3 Sync Licensing: Decentralizing the Music-to-Media PipelineThe Old Sync Game Is Rigged (And Indie Artists Know It)If you are an independent artist, you already know the truth about sync licensing, even if nobody ever said it out loud. The system is closed. The gates are tall. The same names show up again and again in film, TV, and video games. Music supervisors pull from trusted libraries, pre-cleared catalogs, and relationships built over decades. If you are not already inside that circle, you are usually invisible. http://www.makingascene.org

Click here to level up your sync career ➡️ https://blackfriday.syncproducerhub.com In this episode of Sync Producer Spotlight host Jason interviews guest Anthony Clint Jr., founder of the Sync Producer Hub. They discuss the hot topic of AI in music — whether AI will replace human creators, how publishers and supervisors currently view AI-generated music, and practical, ethical ways to use AI in the sync workflow. Key topics include real-world AI use cases (chord suggestions, metadata generation, artwork, lyric transcription), which genres and sync needs are more "AI-proof" (cinematic blends, custom scoring, collaborative production), and how to protect your work from data scraping and legal pitfalls highlighted by recent lawsuits. Anthony also explains the value of community, branding and visibility, introduces the new Sync Producer Hub AI Suite, and leaves listeners with practical advice: adapt to the tools, don't be driven by fear, and leverage human skills like team management and customization to stay competitive.

Making a Scene Presents - How to Use Web3 and the Decentralized Music Industry to Build a Sync Licensing BusinessIf you've been in music for a while, you already know the truth — streaming doesn't pay the bills. The pennies per play model has pushed more and more indie musicians to look for other ways to earn. One of the most powerful options out there is sync licensing — getting your music placed in movies, TV shows, commercials, games, and digital content. But here's where things get interesting: the rise of blockchain and Web3 technology now makes it possible for independent artists to build their own sync licensing businesses without the middlemen who have always taken the biggest cuts.Let's walk through what that actually looks like. We'll start with what sync licensing really means, why the traditional system is so broken, and then dive into how Web3 and smart contracts can give you total control over your rights and royalties. By the end, you'll understand exactly how to set up a decentralized sync licensing business that works for you, not for the labels. http://www.makingascene.org

Kansas City based songwriter Amy Ward responded to a call to action to submit a proposed theme song to celebrate the 15th anniversary for my Tasty Brew Music Radio Show.  Although, like Tica Felise from our last Tasty Brew Music Podcast episode, I did not ultimately choose Amy's submission, I thought her offering compelling enough to want to know more about her music. I brought her into the radio station one Saturday Morning asI hosted the women-centric program “Siren Song.” As you will learn in this conversation, Ward often prepares songs for Sync Licensing, achieving hundreds of song placements on prime TV, Day Time TV, Major Motion Pictures and Independent Films.   She has performed at renowned venues like Madison Square Garden, Kauffman Stadium and T-Mobile Center, as well as recognition on Fox 25 Boston and ABC's KMBC KansasCity. In films and television, she contributes as a songwriter, singer, and producer, including placement on Netflix progamming, and tv programs like Say Yes to the Dress, NCIS, General Hospital, Young & the Restless,  toname a few.On the horizon, Amy lands two songs in the upcoming film,Viral - directed by Blair Underwood and her first song in an animated film , A Tooth Fairy Tale-in theaters and streaming  now.  Enjoy this conversation with music samplings from the AmyWard catalogue!Photo Credit: Hilary Fuller
