John,

I agree with Brian 100%. I'm a music supervisor who uses IMDb a lot. When I saw how your resume was formatted (or not formatted), I had no desire to read it. That one huge block of text looks like a daunting task to try and find where one credit ends and the next one starts.

Had I not met you here, I would have moved on without reading you resume and learning more about you and your music. Adding your placements to IMDb will make them neat and orderly and appealing to other music supervisors.

The process is not that troublesome. I didn't post the instructions earlier because you didn't seem too thrilled to pursue this. Now after Brian's post, I figure I'll post it and you can decide for yourself.

• Go to the IMDb page of the film or episode of the show.
• Click on the Soundtracks link down the right side of the page.
• Click on the Edit Page button.
• Scroll down to the Soundtracks line and change the No Change dropdown box to Add X Item(s). Pick the number that corresponds to the number of songs you have in the film or episode. Then click Continue.
• In the Song box, copy and paste the code below into the box. Add your song title and if there is/was a publisher at the time of the placement, enter that publisher. If there are co-writers, you will need to add them too. If they do not have an IMDb profile, you just enter their name. If there is no publisher (i.e., self published), you can remove that line.

• Click on the Check These Updates button. If all is good, you will get a green box. If there are any issues, you will get a red box with instructions to fix the problem.
• If you get the green box, click Submit These Updates and you're done.
• If you get the red box, fix the error and then click the Re-Check These Updates. The box should turn green. If it does, click Submit These Updates and you're done.

I added your song, "Ibiza Night" to the film, " Mindy McCready Fallen Angel," to test the steps above.

If you post your list of placements with film title, show title w/episode title (air date of episode if possible), your song title, all writers, all publishers (if any) and maybe they might slowly get added over time.

Let me know if you have any questions about this.
