Nashville In Sync Launches In Music City
The Nashville Film Festival Music Program has branched out to form Nashville In Sync, a new coalition of music licensing professionals dedicated to elevating the sync community in Nashville and around the world.
The new nonprofit’s mission is to foster a community built on sync success, while focusing on our core pillars of opportunity, connection, education, diversity, celebration and event excellence.
Membership is open to individuals and organizations who are client-facing sync creatives and sync licensing executives. A sync creative is someone whose primary role is on the sync pitching side of the industry. Membership is now open and is subject to the approval of the Board of Directors.
The Nashville In Sync governing Board will be under the leadership of Heather Cook (Freedom Music Group) and Liz Rogers (Anacrusis), serving as President and Vice President, respectively. Serving alongside them are Joel Timen (Perspective Music Group) as Treasurer, Katie Jelen (Honestly Good Music) as Secretary, ET Brown (SESAC) as Membership Chair, Alex Stefano (Big Yellow Dog Music) as Panels & Events Chair, Kourtney Kirkpatrick (Concord) as Community Liaison Chair, Ben Short (WCPM) as Volunteers Chair and Daniel Higbee (Dualtone) as Social Chair. Nashville In Sync is currently accepting applications for Co-Chair Positions on the board.
Nashville In Sync is holding its inaugural event, the Nashville In Sync Fall Summit, on Oct. 23-25. The event will be similar to the programming of the former Nashville Film Festival Music Program, but on a smaller scale this first year. Some programming will be open to the general public, some will be for Nashville In Sync Members only and some will be exclusive to sponsors of Nashville In Sync.
