It is said that the concept of 5.1 surround sound started at the French cabaret Moulin Rouge in 1987.  Since then, every movie theater and home entertainment systems rely on the best sound quality available from all angles of the room to enhance visual action.  The marriage of sight and sound create a realistic interpretation of the artistic vision of the production.

The importance of quality music for productions is more apparent than ever before.  Billboard Magazine‘s annual Film and TV Music Conference bridges the gap between musicians and productions by making industry professionals available to share their knowledge.  5 Alarm Music’s General Manager Cassie Lord is gearing up to speak about the basics of production music libraries.  “Now more than ever it is important to ensure the integrity and the value of music within the industry,” says Lord.  “Great music is an essential element to any production and it’s up to composers and the industry at large to ensure its worth.”

Cassie will be speaking Thursday, October 28th at 1:30.  Stop by and say hello!
