MUSIC SUPERVISION

Our award-winning music supervisor, Lena Obara, is a highly creative and imaginative music expert with over a decade of experience in the industry. Her extensive education in music and media provides a solid basis for her carefully considered music supervision choices and decisions.

Lena’s expertise allows her to steer each project from start to finish, whether seamlessly matching projects to music and vice-versa by researching and identifying music and composers globally, or dealing with international licensing and negotiation. She works on productions with partners in various counties, and her network allows her not only to clear rights from different territories, but also to find the right composer and the most authentic song or sound.

Lena’s portofolio includes music supervision on Grammy, Oscar, BAFTA, Golden Globe, TIFF and KVIFF-nominated and award-winning projects in film and advertising. She has been a member of the jury at the Cannes Lions and Ciclope Festivals.
