Universal Music Publishing’s Film & TV Department creates opportunities for and licenses our catalogue of songs to film, television, advertising, computer games and stage productions: what is often referred to as ‘synchronization’. We work closely with each writer to support their creative endeavours and both promote and protect their music at every stage of their career. Covering everything from a song’s first play on Australian TV to a major US hit series or scoring original film music, we always treat every use of our artists’ music with equal importance.
The Sapphires - a fact based 'indigenous musical' biopic set in 1968 features the acting and vocal talents of UMP’s Jess Mauboy. Jess’ role as one of four singers in all-girl aboriginal group The Sapphires also serves to highlight a number of works from the prestigious Rondor Music catalogue.
