This weekend!
The Screen/Music Sync Summit

All about music placements in film and TV
March 22-23 Saskatoon SK

We'll start with the basics and walk you through the 'must-knows' if you are interested in pursuing sync opportunities as an artist or songwriter.

How to pitch to music supervisors, metadata, legal and financial implications, and making sure your music is clearable are just a few essential topics we'll cover. With a goal of preparing you to be 'sync ready,' we'll gather for a fun and informative weekend in Saskatoon led by a lineup of national sync professionals, to hear how the sync industry really works and how you can pursue opportunities in it.

Learn all about the panelists who are coming, and get the schedule at www.screenmusic.ca. 

Online registration closes tonight at 11pm, but will also be available at the door. If cost is a barrier, please ask about sponsored registrations. We don't want anyone to miss out on this rare opportunity. Hope to see you soon!

As well, there will be a free mini showcase and networking event on Saturday evening with doors open at 8pm at Night Market YXE, 251 3 Ave S, Saskatoon. Several artists will be performing songwriter-in-the-round style to wrap up the first day of our summit. Everyone is welcome.  (Artists were invited to apply for this showcase via the sync summit registration form, with a deadline of March 3.)
