[Fmpro] ASCAP Sundance Composer Brunch Jan 24

[sean@shunkydave.com]

So if we're not ASCAP, but we could be there that morning and that time,
we couldn't attend and be a part of the goings-on?

> Since many have been asking here, we've got good news - ASCAP is holding

>
> ASCAP's Phil Crosland has assured me that "any ASCAP composers at Sundance
> are welcome with an RSVP," despite the text on the invitation that it's
> only
> for "Sundance Filmmakers and their composers". I hope some FMPRO composers
> choose to go and benefit from this event.
>
> I remain concerned about the lack of composers at the Music Café
> performances, but along with others, I've aired my views on that
> sufficiently here.
>
> Also, it's worth noting on the invitation sent to filmmakers the offer
> that
> "ASCAP can help you find the right composer or songwriter for your
> project".
> I think it's fair to ask exactly how they choose which ASCAP members to
> recommend to filmmakers - an incredibly valuable referral by any
> measure...
> And is it appropriate for a membership organization whose staff is paid by
> all members to only recommend certain members that are "known" by the
> staff?
>
> Best,
