Let's Talk Metadata

Wrangling keywords and mood terms across spreadsheets, PDFs, and submission forms, can feel pretty soul sucking at times, but metadata may be the important part of the life of a cue!

On today’s show, I go over the most common type metadata found in libraries and give you some of my strategies that could mean the difference between getting placed or getting passed over.

Plus in my Year of Taxi update, we’re going to check in on any returns or forwards and take a listen to this week’s submission which is a contemporary  hip-hop cue. And then I  give my thoughts a neutral tasking cue written by 52 Cues Community Member, Gun-Britt Sundstedt (https://soundcloud.com/user-442882086)!
