What is 'sync'?
A music synchronization license, or "sync" for short, is a music license granted by the holder of the copyright of a particular composition (artist, songwriter, label etc), allowing the licensee to synchronize their music with various forms of media output (films, TV shows, video games etc).
SaskMusic is thrilled to present our first ever Saskatchewan-based prairie sync summit. This event is designed to build in complexity over two days of learning, covering topics starting from the basics of "what is sync?" up to more advanced panels for those already placing music in or composing for film/TV.
Hearing their music in a feature film, network TV show or national commercial is a goal of many artists. But what is really involved? What are the legal and financial implications that artists and composers need to be aware of when pursuing and accepting sync offers? How can you make sure your music is clearable when these opportunities appear?
With a goal of preparing and educating more prairie artists on 'sync readiness', we'll gather for a fun and informative weekend in Saskatoon led by a lineup of national and international sync professionals, to hear how the sync industry really works and how you can pursue opportunities in it.
