Independent Music Awards And Music Video Submission

By Christopher Allen


Whether desiring to enter a contest, or simply desiring to share with family and friends, a number of artists are now putting work online. Now that anyone can provide a music video submission to a number of websites, it is easier than ever before for artists to get noticed. One way independent artists and bands can be sure this is the case, is by submitting work to the 9th annual Independent Music Awards.

The ninth annual IMAs are now accepting applications in a number of different categories. With an outstanding line up of judges including Tom Waits Aimee Mann Zooey Deschanel, M. War, Mark Hoppus and Pete Wentz, there is a good chance that the best of the best will get noticed whether or not winning an award. In addition, there are very few artists whom can say that one has had the opportunity to get work in front of such an elite and talented group of judges.

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.

For those only wanting to submit a video to share online outside the IMA website, there are several sites which now allow individual submissions. These sites range from BET to YouTube and beyond. Whether submitting a single video, or an entire live show, there are many sites which welcome these submissions.

Earning an IMA can often assist artists in building a successful career. For, the organization promotes winners and nominees to over fifty million fans on an annual basis. In addition, work by these artists are often submitted to online broadcast media, industry gatekeepers, talent buyers, programmers and music supervisors.

Promoters, The Planetary Group and HIP Video Promo, also work to assist artists in becoming more well known. For, each of these groups has access to performance opportunities, distribution and promotion. As such, those submitting work often have a better chance of building a fan base while possibly gaining support when it comes to booking shows and working in a studio.

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.
