Wonderful interview. Thank you
First, Jen is awesome. What an incredible vibe and perspective she gives on everything. So wonderful to see someone on the business side be so transparent.
I have noticed in the last 6 mos in my tik tok feed that sync has become the "new thing." Thank you Ari and Jen for being so clear on how it all works and how the pieces of the puzzle all fit. I followed the IG link and look fwd to learning more. Thx 👍😊
Tons of gems on this one! I love the transparency and the overall code of ethics that surround Jen and her company!!
I appreciate her transparency. She’s very authentic with her experiences and advice here.
It sounds to me like originality is essential for sync music and knowing every player involved with your songs is critical to improve your chances for landing opportunities.
Jen seems cool af and like she goes hard for her roster! Just submitted my project! 🤞🏼
Let us know what happens!!
I hope you get it! 💪🙏🌚
I really appreciate this interview and her clarity. And Ari, Thank you! You always ask the perfect questions… on right time… ❤
This was a treat. Ari is always good for bringing in amazing and knowledgeable guests to speak with. Jen is AWESOME! 👏🏿
Extremely useful and timely as I’m facing my first sync licensing negotiation 🤞🤞🤞thank you
So many priceless Gems in this interview. Thanks Ari and Jen for this.
Great interview thank you both.
Great interview, very informative - thanks Ari and Jen.
Love loved this content. I’m saving this to refer back to as I complete my Disco tagging and playlists. Now if we can get Splice To come on and resolve how they are working with sync to avoid any possible legal issues 😊
So many gems
I’m drinking in ALL your vids on sync. Q: what’s the minimum # of releases an indie artist should have to be attractive to a sync agency?
Not getting a composer to recreate the song they don’t own 😭😭😭😭😭
It's so hard. most of my experience I have to give away most of my rights and percentage. mainly collecting backend from writer share only. It's barely making me anything even though I got many placements.
you’re with the wrong sync licensing company
@@ArisTake maybe. But would you say that exclusive 50/50 split everything is good?
@@prongpraison8463 many sync agents only take 25% with no backend (like Jen & Low Profile)
Nice
Thank you for all the information Q: ¿What if a sample is transformed from the original to anotther new sample, where does the publishing go to?
Kingdunimas Entertainment Love's the video
🤘😎🤘
Midi isn't samples right?😅
No, but melody/chord prog. lawsuits are a thing 😂
wait…Ari…when you use Apple or Native Instruments the agreement says “free and unlimited use in original commercial productions” does that still need to be cleared with a sync library?
so splice is ok or not?
