Music Video Submission For Contests And Online Viewing

By Christopher Allen


In the past, bands, singer-songwriters and cover designers had to start out on the bottom before making it to the top. Now, with Music Video Submission links, some can become instant artists. While this is the case, not all will become as famous as those whom made their way up the ranks of blues, folk, hip-hop, jazz, rap, rock and roll and soul.

In most cases, the best of the best will not only be nominated for an award but will most likely get attention of promoters. For, whether or not an artist wins an award, there are many who gain the attention of studios and promoters. With work being put before judges ranging from Tom Waits and Aimee Man to Zooey Deschanel and Pete Wentz, these and other notable musicians will no doubt be taking notice.

With all the current clutter on the Internet and airwaves, it can often be difficult to get the undivided attention of studios and promoters. As this is the case, there are now independent labels and artists around the world who submit entries to the IMA annually. It is essential that that individuals review work for quality sound, picture and video before submitting to the IMA. In addition, those submitting design work also need to assure clarity in pictures and spelling with regards to album titles, song titles, lyrics and names of bands and band members.

There are a number of different genres to which artists can submit work on the IMA website. While most are related to album, song and vocals, there are also categories for album designers, lyricists, singer-songwriters and video producers. Whereas, for the first time, artists can enter longer format videos which include more than one song.

While many artists prefer to submit to contests, there are some who only want to upload and share videos. In this case, it should be noted that there are a number of audio and video sites which welcome these submissions, including Internet Archive, Facebook Live, YouTube and others. As such, those whom participate in live shows might want to upload videos to these and other related sites in order to build a larger fan base.

While this is the case, earning an IMA can go along way when it comes to getting a head start on a successful musical career. For, the IMA actively promotes nominees and winners to over fifty million music fans, online and broadcast media, print, music supervisors, talent buyers, programmers and industry gatekeepers.

Media promoters HIP Video Promo and The Planetary Group and others have access to distribution, promotion and performance opportunities which can put nominees and winners in front of millions of fans. As such, simply by submitting, artists have a chance of building a fan base while possibly getting support with regards to gigs and studio production.

When submitting to the IMA, even artists working for social change have a chance of winning an award. For example, these artists can submit albums and songs into the Social Action album and song categories. While other artists can submit to genres including Live Album, Music Video, Gig Poster, Concept Album Love Song and Cover Song just to name a few.
