HMMA TESTIMONIALS

"I'm not sure you get to hear this as often as you should, but THANK YOU. The awards you've created mean a lot more than the event or the award itself: they have become an opportunity for people like me to cross paths with like-minded individuals, and have a shot at having a career or, as was my case, reinventing ourselves professionally".

~ Emilio D. Miler (Film & TV Composer) ~

“I want to thank you and everyone at Hollywood Music in Media Awards that made the MIMICON possible this year. I enjoyed all the panels that I attended, especially the one with some of the industries top Music Supervisors. I felt that particular panel was very geared towards informing the participants on how to get their music considered for media placement, which was helpful. But, I would have also liked it if they provided a little information on how it was they got to where they were, and how? For people like me, who are interested in tapping that field, I think a bit of “What it takes to be where I am” would have been helpful. The panel on composers did that, and I found that very interesting. Overall, My experience at MIMICON was very educational, and I would definitely love to attend again.”

“The best and most useful part of the conference for me was clearly the one-on-one mentoring sessions. I made several good contacts and one is already in active discussion with me.”

“The Music In Media Interactive Conference was the bomb diggity! As an artist, composer, songwriter, industry professional, entrepreneur or individual interested in a career in the music industry the conference should be on the top of your list. The talent was awesome! We will definitely be back next year looking for up and coming artists that are developing their craft, writing great music and having fun. I thought the best part of the conference was the Friday Night meet & greet with performances from up and coming artists. Was great from Hummingbird point of view to hear the artists who were there at the conference performing – it occurs to me that the more opportunities that artists have to perform in front of industry people the better the entire experience of the conference, for everyone… really thought that was a great aspect!!!”

“The panels were very insightful – it gave a different view of the industry from the usual tech and music retail panels I have attended in the past. I liked getting the perspective from the artists, composers, and music supervisors. Unlike the panels I have attended that have discussed retail, marketing, and technology angles, the MIMICON conference gave better and more clear direction for artists and music marketing people on how to get noticed in the film, TV, and commercial licesning space. I purposely attended panels that I had no interest in beforehand and walked away with information that makes me a more rounded and intelligent music marketer.”
