CCC Explores Film Music Deals In ‘The Real Score’ On January 11 In Los Angeles

Musicians, music publishers, songwriters, and music attorneys all get involved in the process of putting music into motion pictures and television. Dealing with each other and music supervisors, producers and directors can be very complex, but the ins and outs of the process will be explored by a panel at the California Copyright Conference on Tuesday evening, January 11 in Los Angeles.

“We are staging a series of mock scenarios so everyone can take a look at what really goes on behind-the-scenes in the way music gets into films,” states Eric Polin, Sr. VP of Music Publishing at Universal Pictures. Polin, a CCC Board member, will moderate the program. “The business process involving both original music and licensed tracks will be examined in what we expect to be a lively presentation,” Polin added.

Joining Polin on the panel will be a distinguished group of entertainment industry professionals:

* Todd Hallowell – Executive Producer with Imagine Entertainment on such films as “Apollo 13,” “A Beautiful Mind,” “Cinderella Man,” “The DaVinci Code,” “Angels & Demons,” and the upcoming ” The Dilemma.”

* Julianne Jordan – Music Supervisor on some of the top studio films of the recent past, including “The Bourne Identity,” “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” “Alvin & The Chipmunks,” “Valentine’s Day,” “Red,” “Yogi Bear,” and the upcoming “Hop.”

* Mike Knobloch – President, Film Music and Publishing, Universal Pictures.

* Christopher Lennertz – Composer on such films as “Alvin & The Chipmunks,” “Adam,” “Cat & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore,” the TV series “Supernatural” and the upcoming “Hop.”
