NARIP Music Supervisor Sessions

Intimate Meetings & Pitch Sessions With Top Music Supervisors

Session #6 with John Houlihan
on Monday, June 27, 2011 — PLEASE NOTE NEW DATE

at SAE Institute of Technology in Los Angeles


DETAILS

What do P.J. Bloom, Carolyn Richardson, Gary Calamar, Julianne Jordan, Andrea von Foerster and John Houlihan have in common? They are all special guests at NARIP Music Supervisor Sessions at SAE Institute in Hollywood, CA.

Representing the best and brightest in music supervision, these six seasoned executives select and place music in blockbuster films and hit television shows, and in NARIP’s intimate sessions, you get to meet and pitch them for current opportunities.

Placement is the new radio. Come meet these career-makers.

BACKGROUND

NARIP President Tess Taylor is regularly retained by a private European music organization to secure meetings with top music supervisors in Los Angeles for its members. Placements secured and professional relationships formed through these meetings are so good that we felt this format would work well for those who represent catalogues and/or seek intimate pitch opportunities with the best (and busiest) music supervisors in town.

Limited to 15 people, NARIP’s sessions enable you to get to know the supervisors and more importantly, enable music supervisors to get to know you. At private sessions in 2010, Alicen Schneider needed a theme song for a game show (Minute To Win It) and Gary Calamar needed a title song for an MTV series. At another session, Carolyn Richardson needed a theme song for a television project. Participants were able to pitch for these opportunities on the spot, receiving instant feedback as to whether a song was appropriate or not, and WHY. This valuable feedback makes better pitches – and ultimately, placements – possible. In some cases, participants even had time to re-work their music to better fit the supervisors’ needs.

Above all, attendees MET key players in the modern music business, paving the way for future opportunities and giving them an edge in a highly competitive market.

At each session, participants will have the opportunity to pitch music for specific opportunities and get immediate feedback from one music supervisor.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER



Chris Mollere

Music Supervisor Chris Mollere’s diverse interest in the world began quite early in life. Growing up in a military family, he traveled extensively while living in Europe and various stateside locations. At an early age he developed a unique appreciation and love for all styles of music. He especially credits his family’s love of music and his father’s extensive record collection as an early influence. His passion and love of music evolved even further as he began attending concerts and playing music himself. Chris attended and graduated from the University of Texas at Austin, and in addition to receiving an excellent education in the areas of psychology, advertising and business, he participated in countless music events that the city and state had to offer. Living in Austin provided Chris unlimited opportunities to attend concerts ranging from the most seasoned performers to a diverse variety of new artists. Becoming friends with many musicians and music venue owners provided Chris with a unique perspective of the behind the scenes challenges and business aspects of music. To further expand his knowledge of the music business, Chris worked with bands in management, production and promotional capacities. These early positions helped Chris understand many of the diverse facets involved in the music industry. After graduation, Chris moved to Los Angeles, California to pursue a full time career in music and entertainment. One of Chris’s first jobs was as a Producer’s / Composer’s Assistant at Music Forever in Hollywood. There he served as a liaison with record labels, advertising agencies, directors and producers while working on a plethora of projects. One of these projects was the film Memory, which provided Chris his first opportunity to work as a music supervisor, an experience that would confirm he could fuse together his passion for music and film. Since then, Chris has had numerous credits as a music supervisor, including working on the ABC Family Television series KYLE XY and 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU, as well as on the feature films THE BOX, I HOPE THEY SERVE BEER IN HELL and THE HAUNTING OF MOLLY HARTLEY. Chris is currently the music supervisor for the CW television series THE VAMPIRE DIAIRES as well as for the ABC Family series GREEK and PRETTY LITTLE LIARS. He has recently completed the soundtrack for Season One of The Vampire Diaries, which was released on Capitol Records in October 2010, and he recently completed working on the soundtrack for Season One of Pretty Little Liars which is out on Water Tower Records.

“ONE OF THE BEST OPPORTUNITIES TO NETWORK” IN THE BIZ (Music Connection Magazine)

NARIP Presents

Amplify Your Career: Get Connected with the Texas GRAMMYs

on Tuesday, November 5, 2013

at Houston Community College in Houston, TX




Talent is useful, education and skills help, but without a strong network you are limited in what you can accomplish.

In fact, super-successful artist manager Steve Rennie (Incubus) says what has contributed most to his success is, “Getting other people to do what I want them to do!”

Building a team is essential, and so NARIP presents this special program to help you build your team and professional network to extend your reach.

BONUS: Three Texas Grammy Board Members are our special guests, and will detail how their careers are thriving, how they have built and maintained their powerful networks, and what YOU can do to build yours. Special attention will be given to the Grammy nomination process, and what artist reps can do to be part of it.

Join NARIP and Texas Grammy Board Members for this professional development event designed to inform industry professionals and their artist clients about opportunities available now and in the future.

Is your network not working? Ours is.

“NARIP brunches have been a HUGE benefit for me and my company,” says Geodesic Management’s Dan Strader from New York. “In just a few hours at a Los Angeles brunch, I was able to establish a presence in that city and make solid connections that I still use to this day. Networking brunches have now begun in New York, and the connections we’ve made are career-changing.”
