Media Submission Checklist for Independent Creators
A checklist for organizing project details, media files, credits and permissions before submission.
Identify the content category
Determine whether your project is music, film, television, podcast or another supported format. Different categories may have different requirements.
Prepare accurate metadata
Organize titles, descriptions, contributors, artwork and other project details so reviewers can understand the submission.
Verify permissions
Keep records showing that you control or are authorized to submit the content and associated materials.
Track your submission
Use the secure MFAH Creator Portal to manage available submission workflows. Do not assume a project is approved or published until confirmation is provided.
