8.00pm – 9.15pm: How To Place Your Music in Film and TV
Have you ever wanted to write for a TV show or create music for advertising?

This panel will be discussing everything you need to know to prepare, pitch and place your songs for television in the UK and around the world and the important matter of making sure that you get paid.

Daniel Jones (PRS for Music – Moderator)
