Music for Advertising is a focused session on sync, placements, and composing for media. Led by Faffi, this event dives into how music is created, pitched, and licensed for visual media, offering practical insights for producers and composers. Faffi worked for Heineken, ASDA, Rabobank, AMF, Hunkemöller, American Express, Netto, Gameloft and Nike so this will be a valuable masterclass.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Thomas de Graaf, professionally known as ‘Faffi’, is a music producer and mixing engineer based in Leeuwarden, The Netherlands. His experiences working at the iconic Wisseloord Studios, graduating from ArtEZ Conservatory with honors, running his business and spending countless hours making music, make for a well-rounded skill set as a music professional. Currently, he spends his time crafting songs with a wide array of talented artists from all over the globe, with the goal to simply make outstanding music. This goal also shows when creating for media, where Faffi provides companies with tailor-made songs to make their advertisements and events shine. His expertise ranges from modern Pop to Dance, and Hip-Hop to avant-garde Electronica and everything in between. When he is not writing a tune, engaging in a songwriting session, or mixing in the studio, he is likely crafting a boundary-pushing instrumental on his laptop. Thomas consistently delivers high-quality and innovative productions that always leave his clients satisfied.
