How cool would that be?

Hearing yourself in film, and

getting paid! It's like double

dipping! But musical artists

and producers need to know

how to get there and how to

protect yourself along the

way. Come find out how it

gets done.

We will focus on publishing

v. licensing, what rights toyou hold and what makes

them valuable, for what and

when do you get paid, what

sorts of music are good

candidates for licensing, why and how to work with third parties, who is out there to help

you and how do they work/differ.

Myths abound: Get the straight dope from Jordan Tishler, multi-award winning music

producer and licensing guru at dBE.Music, a firm dedicated to licensing independent

music for use in TV and Film.
