Pixie started working in the media industry 17 years ago in the music department of ITV Yorkshire. After recognising a passion for the creative side of putting music to picture, she moved on to become a music consultant for EMI. Initially it was a mostly Regional based role, providing media clients across the UK with both production music and commercial music. She gradually worked her way to leading the UK sales team for Sony ATV, and in 2021 became the V.P of Creative and Co-head of the UK sync team. This entails managing a team who license, pitch, and seek sync opportunities for their roster, both catalogue and new works.Pixie works closely with the artists at Sony ATV and A&R to build and maintain relationships so that she can pitch creatively and effectively for TV, Advertising, Games and Film, as well as work with music supervisors, directors, and music departments to create opportunities for our Sony ATV artists and writers. Alongside this she runs UK sync sessions for Sony songwriters and currently works with a plethora of artists and composers to produce 50 albums a year for the Sony Music Publishing in-house Juice label.We really enjoyed speaking with Pixie and hope that you like this episode!Please do subscribe and leave a rating, it really helps us to share these stories with more people.Like all of our episodes, this was recorded remotely.Follow MeloCompass on Instagram and LinkedIn.
