First placement of a track signed 10 years ago

Post by hummingbird » Wed Jun 20, 2018 2:10 pm

Tunesat just picked up a placement for a track (Jasmine Zheng) co-written with Chuck Schlacter and signed exclusively years ago. It was used on a program called "Aspettando Geo." I think we got the library deal through a TAXI forward in... oh, maybe 2008? Ten years for a placement. Wow. I'm not complaining!

Long version of the 5-year plan! But very cool, and goes to show - we never know what's in store.

That's awesome, Vikki!

This is a great post for all of the people saying "I got a forward over ONE MONTH AGO!!! How long will it take to get signed and placed?!?!?" :)

I guess you don't have to work on the 'forget about it' part in the recommended submission formula! :shock:
