HEG President Sarah-Chanderia has created a series of seminars designed to educate writers, artists, companies and organizations on the workings of this business of music.  Seminar topics include:

•  Music Publishing Basics – What are the rights associated with copyrights, and how do songs make money?
•  Synchronization Licensing – Music in films, TV shows, advertisements and games.  How does it work and what does it earn?
•  Music Publishing Contracts – What do you need to know to protect yourself?
•  Marketing – What marketing tools do you need to sell your music?  What should be in a bio?  Do you need a website or is a Facebook page enough?  This comprehensive seminar explains what you need and why.
•  Networking – The music business is run by people… but how to get to them?  Understand how to be taken seriously by the people who make a difference.
• Music Conferences – MIDEM, SXSW, by:Larm, WOMEX, Eurosonic, etc., etc.  How can attending a music conference help you?  Which ones should you consider?  How do you prepare, conduct yourself at the conference and follow-up once it’s finished?  Make sense of it all with this conference overview.
• International Markets – How is the business different in Japan?  In the U.S.?  A market-by-market education for those thinking of taking their music global.
