OPEN CALL DLS: Workshop Online: “Pitch to Sync”

This year, as part of the Digital Licensing Sessions, Primavera Pro and Unison wants to get you closer to the opportunity to have one of your songs used in a film, series, commercial or other audio-visual media.

Fifteen music supervisors from all over the world, working in film, television, advertising, video games and other audio-visual media, will be brought together so that you can introduce yourself and get them to listen to not just one, but four of your songs, and be part of their reliable sources for music for their projects.
