Through this partnership, MediaTracks and YFA aim to equip young filmmakers with essential industry knowledge and practical experience that will shape their creative careers. MediaTracks has a long-standing commitment to supporting diversity and inclusion within the music industry, working with a wide network of composers, sub-publishers, and organisations globally to champion underrepresented voices.

“We’re thrilled to join forces with Young Film Academy,”

 says William Saunders, Creative Director at MediaTracks. 

“Having worked in education, I’ve seen first-hand how access to the right resources and guidance can truly empower young creatives. At MediaTracks, we are passionate about supporting the next generation of filmmakers, providing them with not only the tools to enhance their projects but also the knowledge to navigate the complexities of music licensing with integrity.”

As part of the partnership, YFA students will gain practical experience in music licensing, using MediaTracks’ curated playlists and high-quality tracks to elevate their film projects. The collaboration includes hands-on use of cue sheets and additional resources that will prepare students for real-world filmmaking careers. MediaTracks and YFA will jointly promote the collaboration’s success stories, celebrating the students’ achievements and underscoring the importance of ethical music practices in the creative industry.

“YFA is delighted to be partnering with Media Tracks to give our aspiring filmmakers access to a high quality library of cinematic music which they can use to score the films they make at Young Film Academy. Our students have already seen what a difference in production values this resource can bring, and we look forward to seeing what more they can achieve!”

This partnership underscores MediaTracks’ dedication to fostering young and diverse talent, inspiring a new generation to adopt ethical practices in music usage and create impactful projects that respect artists’ work.
