Daily Variety, June 6th – EMI songs to NYU students, by Steve Chagollan. GreenLight Music, the online music licensing service launched by Corbis in March, and EMI Music Publishing have entered into an exclusive partnership with NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts to provide student filmmakers with what Greenlight calls “affordable, pre-approved pricing” for thousands of songs from the EMI catalog for use in their film projects. Gary Shenk, CEO of Corbis, found that of the hundreds of requests they’ve received since launching Greenlight a few months ago, the No. 1 request was from student filmmakers. So what kind of deal will students get? Students would pay roughly 75% less than what they’d normally pay for an iconic (EMI) song.
