ABOUT US

The Hollywood Music In Media Awards™ (HMMA) is the first award organization to honor original music (Song and Score) in all visual media from around the globe including film, TV, video games, trailers, commercial advertisements, documentaries and special programs. The HMMA nominations have historically been representative of the nominees of key awards shows that are announced months later. The HMMA main event features live music performances, celebrity presenters, tributes to music industry icons, awards for composers, songwriters and artists. The HMMA also celebrates emerging, independent artists and music influencers from around the globe for creative and innovative contributions.

Hollywood Music In Media Awards (main event) provides a comprehensive, red carpet awards experience within a high-value networking and opportunity environment for industry professionals, composers, and artists.

The Hollywood Music In Media Academy was created as a statutory voting body of entertainment professionals and journalists to assist in the selection of winners from designated nomination categories within the Hollywood Music In Media Awards. The HMMA also includes an Advisory Board consisting of professionals from various facets of entertainment including, but not limited to, Society of Composers and Lyricists (SCL), the Television Academy, Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), The Recording Academy (NARAS), Songwriters Hall of Fame (SHOF), performing rights organizations, journalists and music executives.

The Music in Media Interactive Symposium™ (MIMIsym) sets a new standard for true democratization in the new music industry by bringing together the best and the brightest within arms reach of every participant in an intensive one-day event. Panels are held throughout the year, and specifically the week of the Main Event so those attending from around the world have a fulfilling HMMA experience. 

The City of Los Angeles presented the HMMA with an official proclamation…twice!

In 2010 (our second year!) L.A. sent the HMMA a Certificate of Recognition stating “In recognition of your outstanding contributions to the entertainment industry, global artist community and the cultural arts in Los Angeles. You are Angels in the City of Angels.”

Then the following year, presented at the HMMA main event on November 17, 2011 with ANOTHER proclamation (see image), this time signed by the entire Los Angeles City council. These are truly great honors and we appreciate the recognition. Thank you Los Angeles!
