MusicOntario Communities Connect: Hamilton - Spotlight on Sync & Licensing
MUSICONTARIO COMMUNITIES CONNECT: HAMILTON FOCUS ON SYNC & LICENSING April 5, 2016, 4:30-8PM @ CoMotion on King (115 King St. E, Hamilton, ON)
MusicOntario Communities Connect is all about bridging the gaps between Ontario’s vibrant music markets! During our Community Development Research Project (CDRP), we asked musicians, artists and industry professionals across the province what types of support and education they hoped to have access to regionally (you can read the full results at www.music-ontario.ca). With that in mind, we’ve tailored this session to cover the topics Hamilton survey respondents want to learn about. From publishing, music supervision/sync, to licensing and rights collectives, working smart in today’s music industry goes beyond optimizing the front end of your business (music sales, gigs, merch). It requires savvy behind the scenes as well: protecting your publishing rights, and licensing and placing your music in film, television, ads and videos games can help you generate revenue in the background. Learn from various industry pros how the cogs in the wheel flow together and how to approach the key players to put your music to work!
