Discover Sooner, the company seeking to accelerate the attention of publishers and music professionals to songwriters, has announced the Sooner Sync Challenge with special guests Justina Shandler and Elaine Ryan of Unicorn Sync. This program will take place on Zoom and is aimed at those who have intermediate-to-advanced-level songwriting and co-writing experience. Applications for this opportunity close on July 9th and only 30 spots are available.
Unicorn Sync is a boutique music licensing agency that offers a catalog of one-stop pop, R&B, hip hop, singer-songwriter, rock and Latin music with high production value, created by independent artists & producers. Co-founders, Justina and Elaine, will join Nancy Deckant, founder and CEO of Discover Sooner to host this challenge. More information can be found at discoversooner.com/sooner-
The interactive workshop aims to connect writers, artists, and producers with professionals within the sync world. Unicorn Sync agents will share a brief to write to, provide feedback during the writing process and potentially sign the songs written by the writers during the program.
Unicorn Sync co-founder Elaine Ryan says, “The most important element of any song, including those written for TV and film, is authenticity." Still, there are elements and patterns that come up frequently enough in songs that get licensed that it’s helpful to learn what specific qualities make a song syncable. We run an artist-focused music licensing agency and are all about passing along education and helping our community succeed. If you’re an independent artist, songwriter or producer wanting to get your music into TV/Film, we can’t wait to meet you."
“When it comes to writing songs for TV/Film, one of the greatest challenges writers have is dialing in the lyrics and the recording in a way that fits the needs of music supervisors,” remarked Nancy Deckant. “We are so excited to partner with Unicorn Sync! They know what is needed by music supervisors and there is room in their circle for more writers.”
