5. ๐ฌ HRDRV Sync
Our non-exclusive pitching service for:
- TV/film supervisors
- Ad agencies
- Major artist placements
- Labels, game studios, and more
How It Works:
(Please note: Everything below only applies to songs placed through HRDRV's pitching efforts โ not songs you upload but we don't place, or songs you release/upload anywhere else.)
- Song-by-song, non-exclusive deals (unless otherwise agreed).
- You always keep 100% of your writer's share ๐
- HRDRV splits the publisher's share 50/50 on tracks placed by us (e.g., if your pub share is 20%, HRDRV gets 10%).
- If you don't have a publishing entity, HRDRV may temporarily collect 100% of the pub share to ensure your royalties don't vanish into the "black box".
- Upfront fees (e.g., sync fees or advances) are split 50/50.
- You can pitch your songs elsewhere. Just let us know if a song is placed exclusively elsewhere โ we'll pull it from our system.
- See extended terms at syncterms.hrdrv.com
