Meet the Nominees: Music Supervisors

In this deep-dive event, leading music supervisors unpack the delicate art of selecting music for film and TV, balancing budget, rights, and emotional impact. Through case studies we’ll explore how music choices shape tone, influence audience perception, and even change a scene’s meaning entirely. How would that moment hit without the music we now associate with it? What tracks almost made the cut and why didn’t they? Whether you’re a filmmaker, music lover or simply curious about what happens behind the scenes of your favourite shows and films, this session will tune your ears to the storytelling power of sound.
