SYNC [OPATED]: CURRENT TRENDS IN JAZZ MUSIC SYNCHRONIZATION
Many things have changed since 1958, when Miles Davis was asked to improvise the whole soundtrack of Ascenseur pour l\’échafaud in one single night-session! For some time now, even in the Jazz cosmos, extra-diegetic music appearing in all kind of tv products got almost solely taken by music libraries or through direct agreements with sync agencies. So, what are the opportunities for jazz musicians and labels today?
In this webinar, the successful music supervisor Rupert Hollier (RedFive Creative) and the multi-award winning Frederich Schindler (Too Young Ltd) will analyze and discuss the main trends concerning the synchronization of jazz music in movies, tv series and tv commercials, giving the partecipants useful tips about how to juggle in the music licensing market.
