S3 Ep8: The Sync Report | Tricia Halloran Sep 29, 2022

Show notes

Tricia Halloran has music supervised many film and TV for shows including New Amsterdam, Dead To Me, Tully, The Space Between and the upcoming movie Sound of Freedom, starring Mira Sorvino. We also find out about her 15 years hosting the hugely influential indie rock show “Brave New World” on KCRW and working as content editor for the website Ultimate Band List (later artistdirect.com)
Find out how Tricia balances the expectations of showrunners and directors with what is actually possible when it comes to music sync. How does Tricia choose the music for each character when she’s working on a TV show? And what is the point of making tracklists for each character? Why did Tricia have to arrange for changes to a song by Luke Sital Singh for New Amsterdam?
Find out why artists and publishers can have very different reactions to music sync requests and why it’s sometimes easier to commission new theme music for a film or TV show. All of this and much more in conversation with Music Supervisor Tricia Halloran.
Stay tuned for our music sync session featuring more of the best music from our audience hoping to have their music placed for sync.

S3 Ep7: The Sync Report | Dr. Jess Duckworth Sep 22, 2022

Show notes

Dr Jess Duckworth, aka The Piano Doctor, composes delicate, melodic, reflective piano music that resonated across the world during the covid pandemic and ever since, propelling her album to the top of the UK Classical Charts and securing her a top 20 UK album in early 2022.
As a medical doctor, Jess was at the frontline of the UK covid pandemic, but then, on her way home after long, long shifts in hospital she would sit at the piano and play one of her beautiful compositions for the patients who could not have visitors and the medics and staff who could barely rest.
Hear Jess talk about this time in the world and how it inspired her to compose more beautifully emotive songs for her forthcoming album, with songs about new beginnings, not just coming out of the pandemic, but in many areas of life, including the effect of her latest new medical role and the babies she’ll be bringing into the world!
Dr Jess Duckworth is a hugely talented composer and pianist and a huge inspiration, no wonder our panel fell head over heels for her, and we are sure you will too. Be sure to check out Dr Jess Duckworth's highly emotive music on your favorite music provider.
Stay tuned for the sync session and music from you our audience, plus a discussion on World Peace School Sports Day with creators Mike Molloy & Derek Peaple.

S3 Ep3: The Sync Report | Michelle De Vries & Rupert Hollier Aug 25, 2022

Show notes

Listen as Michelle talkspassionately about the importance of music for filmmakers, why she wants to be part of the film project from early in the filmmaking process and why the right music can make a huge impact on a film’s success.
Find out what happens when a filmmaker comes to a music supervisor with the music they want, or what happens when an artist turns down a music sync request. And why that is more likely to happen in advertising or with football films!
Listen to them both talk about some of the difficulties they’ve encountered in their roles, as well as some of the best parts of being a music supervisor. Plus, they remind us about the importance of metadata and what happens when you don’t include it.
Why does Michelle love working with composer and producer Marius De Vries? (no relation!) What’s it like to be freelance in the music industry and how do they create a work & life balance in such a stressful role and business? And that’s just to start!
Stay tuned for music from our sync session including Belle Wilder, The Aftershox and Izzy Spring.

S3 Ep2: The Sync Report | Sean Hurwitz Aug 18, 2022

Show notes

Hear how Sean managed to learn 23 Smash Mouth songs in three days to join them on a tour of US military bases in the Middle East in 2011 and how he approaches learning other artists' music.
In 2014, Sean was burned out, sold his music catalogue and took a few years off writing, recording and touring, only to return a few years later with a different approach to the business, thanks to a chance meeting with someone from Taxi. Listen to the difference this made to Sean’s music career.
Learn how Sean’s successful formula for writing songs for music sync has earned him some huge placements, including for Orange phone network in the UK (equivalent to Verizon in the US). Sean talks about song structure, the process of instrumental cues and how to make a music supervisor's life much easier.
