Author Topic: Music Richard Hamilton Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1341 From: Evansville, Indiana Registered: Jan 2000 posted 06-05-2006 06:52 AM                     Does anybody have contacts with anyone in the music industry? I want to help someone if I can. We are in the entertainment industry, I thought maybe somebody might know someone. Thanks, Rick  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 06-05-2006 09:35 AM                       I know a published music composer (ASCAP) from the ad film business. He's been in retirement for about 10 years. Will that help, or are you looking for someone like a producer to get someone's record out?  |  IP: Logged Richard Hamilton Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1341 From: Evansville, Indiana Registered: Jan 2000 posted 06-05-2006 10:50 AM                     Tim, someone like a producer to get a very talented artist recognized.  |  IP: Logged Mike Babb Master Film Handler Posts: 250 From: Norwich UK Registered: Jul 2002 posted 06-05-2006 10:56 AM                        I don't have any good contacts aside from running a basement record label but don't overlook the do it yourself approach. Recording and pressing records yourself, creating a web page, a myspace page, selling discs on CDbaby.com, releasing songs online etc can fill the gap.  |  IP: Logged Allison Parsons Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 630 From: East Peoria, IL Registered: Oct 2004 posted 06-05-2006 12:59 PM                        Try to get the attention of a A&R person, if you want to get someone noticed. Just knowing someone who works at a label probably won't get you anywhere, unless it's an A&R guy/girl. I know a few street team managers at 3 record labels, but they have no say on who gets signed and who doesn't. you can always start a Myspace music spot for him/her hehe  |  IP: Logged Mitchell Dvoskin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1869 From: West Milford, NJ, USA Registered: Jan 2001 posted 06-05-2006 01:05 PM                     A theater near you soon! It was my understanding that a real location was required when registering. Am I mistaken?  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 06-05-2006 01:48 PM                        Yeah, there was a time when the moderators would have caught such a thing in 10 seconds or less. I think they all must have gotten real jobs or something and don't hang around here much anymore.  |  IP: Logged Richard Hamilton Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1341 From: Evansville, Indiana Registered: Jan 2000 posted 06-05-2006 02:19 PM                     quote: Mitchell Dvoskin A theater near you soon!

I live in hotel rooms 99 percent of the time throughout the world. I don't have a location. Rick quote: Mike Blakesley real jobs or something ?????  |  IP: Logged
