Synch Rights

Synch rights (or synchronization rights) refer to the right to permanently associate a musical work as film music with a film work – regardless of whether it is part of a film, a television programme, a music video or a television advertisement. The term is derived from the word “synchronous” [Greek: sýn = together, at the same time and chrónos = time], i.e. a use of music adapted to images.
