Osana Musiikki & Mediaa järjestetään tänä vuonna ensimmäistä kertaa myös taidemusiikkiaiheista seminaariohjelmaa. Paneelikeskusteluissa ja puheenvuoroissa paneudutaan siihen, mitä kansainvälistyminen merkitsee taidemusiikkikentän eri toimijoille, miksi orkesterit kiertävät ja miltä näyttää taidemusiikkiviennin tulevaisuus.

Lydian lisäksi HarrisonParrott-agentuurista Musiikki & Mediaan saapuu puhumaan useiden orkestereiden kansainvälisistä kiertueista vastaava Viola Frankenfeld, jota on mahdollista tavata myös kahdenkeskisissä mentorointitapaamisissa.

Score! -työpaja (torstaina 3.10. klo 15:15–17:15) on tilaisuus, jossa elokuva- ja mediasäveltäjät pääsevät esittäytymään noin kymmenelle music supervisorille eri puolilta maailmaa. Music supervisorit puolestaan kertovat, millaisia työtilauksia heillä on tulossa ja mitä he kaipaavat ja odottavat tilaussäveltäjältä.
Get Synced! -työpajan (perjantaina 4.10. klo 14:30-16:30) osallistujat saavat music supervisoreilta eli musiikkipäälliköiltä ajankohtaiset tehtävänannot (liidit), joihin vastaavaa musiikkia osallistujat pääsevät työpajassa esittelmään musiikkipäälliköille henkilökohtaisesti. Osallistujat saavat musiikkipäälliköiltä palautetta edustamastaan materiaalista ja sen sopivuudesta eri visuaalisen median käyttötarkoituksiin. Workshopista on tullut aikaisempina vuosina useita toteutuneita synkronisointeja.
Molempiin työpajoihin ilmoittaudutaan täältä 18.9. mennessä. Osallistuminen edellyttää Musiikki & Media -tapahtumaan rekisteröitymisen.
