This session offers a clear and practical introduction to sync licensing for artists, songwriters, and rights holders. What does it take for a song to be placed in a film, series, advertisement, or video game? Metadata. What rights are involved, and who are the key players – supervisors, agents, publishers, libraries? This session will cover the fundamentals, including how sync deals work, what makes music placement-ready, and how to start positioning your catalogue for licensing opportunities.
