Co-founder @eh_side_ev speaking on the inception of Syncstate and what to expect for the full experience. We had the opportunity to share our headline event with everyone featuring some of the most talented music supervisors and agents in the game!
Big thanks to @departurefest for hosting our innovative and insightful headline panel at the festival!
We couldn't have done it without @disco.ac as our partner!
We can't wait to provide more experiences like this in multiple places, cities, and countries!
The inaugural @wearesyncstate experience at @departurefest was everything we hoped it would be and then some. A room full of artists, creators, and industry professionals getting a real, unfiltered look at how sync decisions actually get made with a special gift from our sponsor @disco.ac
None of it happens without the people who showed up and gave everything to this room. Thank you to @brooklynmusicexperience , @sendtunesplz , @cheryllink13 , @danicabansie , @mark.garfield1 , @syncsummitig and editing by @evanmiless for bringing your knowledge, your honesty, and your time to a conversation that the independent music community genuinely needed.
Sync licensing education has been overdue for something like this. A space that respects artists enough to show them the real thing. We're just getting started.
More rooms. More cities. More access.
Syncstate.

Most artists know sync matters. Few understand how it actually works.
@wearesyncstate is changing that. A live experience where real supervisors respond to real briefs, in front of the room. The process that's been locked away in agencies and supervision companies for decades, made visible.
The sync industry doesn't have a shortage of information. It has a shortage of transparency.
That's what this fixes.
More details coming. Stay close.

Sync is a growth story. The sync market pulled in about US$650 million in 2024 โ a small slice of the industry but a real, high-leverage opportunity for creators. A single placement can pay, boost your streams, and open doors to new fans and licensing deals.
