Billboard Future Sound
November 17-18, 2011
Terra, San Francisco
Welcome to the Future of Music:
Billboard’s Future Sound Project is an unconventional effort undertaken to address the needs of the technology, investment and music industries in way that both involves and benefits all three. Unlike most conferences, Future Sound’s goal is to map out the music industry’s digital future, focusing on actionable solutions and finding common ground.
The Project:
Participants will take part in a substantive exploration of how to best marry the interests of the music, tech and investor communities, jointly, fairly and effectively. Over the course of one and a half days, Billboard’s top editorial talent will drive the discussion and compile the results for subsequent publication in Billboard and other outlets. Along the way, attendees will discover the newest companies emerging to address this converging market, engage in focused networking sessions with their peers, attend solution-based breakout sessions, and interact with hands-on displays, exhibits and demonstrations.

A2IM will be hosting a Licensing Day for our members on Wednesday, October 26, 2011 from 4PM – 7PM at Mitchell Silberberg & Knupp LLP (11377 W. Olympic Blvd., LA, CA, map). This event is being planned by A2IM’s Licensing & Publishing Committee.
Two panels will cover soundtracks and music supervision.
PANELS:
Future of the Soundtrack - Is the soundtrack dying especially with the advent of streaming music services paying people based on ISRC rather than UPC codes? Some labels and studios are doing disc on demand rather than manufacturing, distributing, and promoting soundtracks. What is next for the soundtrack? Panelists include David Hirshland of Bug Music, Brian McNelis of Lakeshore Entertainment, Steven Vincent of Disney, and Russell Ziecker of Lions Gate. This panel will be moderated by Amos Biegun of Counterpoint Systems. Bios for moderator and panelists HERE.
Music Supervision – Music supervisors discuss the process, timelines, budgets, and other licensing options needed to maximize impact for music licensed (ie digital rights, downloads, soundtracks, all media). Panelists include Peter Afterman, Ellen Ginsburg of Fox, and Wendy Levy. This panel will be moderated by Lucille Hunt of Mack Avenue. Bios for moderator and panelists HERE.
If you will be in LA that week, A2IM is offering a member-only discount to Billboard & Hollywood Reporter’s Film & TV Music Conference. More info HERE.
Special thanks go to all who have volunteered their time, to TuneSat for sponsoring this event, and to Mitchell Silberberg & Knupp LLP for hosting us!
