I've been approved for providing video how would I go about music...

Hello and thank you in advance for any assistance in this matter,
I am a self employed cinematographer, video editor and 3d Motion Graphics designer. I travel throughout the world shooting destination weddings as well as families that go on excursions through out the world. I was a full time musician and producer prior to my current career and have been writing a lot of music in my spare time through out the last 5 years.
My question is, do I need any special pre-authorization in order to upload music for licensing?
Note: I'm sitting on 500+ songs that are in the corporate and cinematic genre.
Thank you once again!

Hey leonardhasemann!

Thanks for your post! In order to upload music for licensing, you do need to be verified first. Please do the following as soon as you're ready to start uploading:

-Please upload your legal identification card or current passport, into our system here → https://www.pond5.com/index.php?page=my_id_check

Please do not email your ID to us

Please send the following to support@pond5.com with the subject line "Verification + leonardhasemann"

-A link to your professional website and/or other web presence (e.g., LinkedIn profile, youtube channel, soundcloud/bandcamp page, vimeo channel, other stock media website portfolio, etc)

-A screenshot of your editing/mixing/compositing software with one of your recent Pond5 items visible in it

Once you send that, we'll get your account verified!

Looking forward to hearing back from you!
