On Thursday evening, November 17, at the Fonda Theater in Los Angeles, the Hollywood Music in Media Awards (HMMA) announced the winners from its 7th annual competition in film, TV, videogames, commercials and trailers. This year's theme recognized trail blazers and trend setters within the music industry. The event was at capacity and virtually every winner was in attendance. Justin Timberlake delivered a tapped acceptance speech from the airport in Dallas on his way to a tour.

The 2016 HMMAs included presentations and performances hosted by Ron Pearson with musical performances including Singer / Songwriter Melanie (Brand New Key) and Singer / Songwriter Melissa Manchester (Don't Cry Out loud). The HMMA recognizes musical excellence in visual media as well as an individual who has made a significant impact in music or the music community. Past honorees include Smokey Robinson, Glen Campbell and Dave Mason.

The HMMA is the only award that specifically recognizes music composition in all visual media. The HMMA nominations are selected by an advisory board and selection committee which includes journalists, music executives, songwriters and composers. The winners are determined by music-media industry professionals comprised of select members of the Society of Composers and Lyricists (SCL), The Television Academy, the AMPAS Music Branch, NARAS, performing rights organizations, film music journalists, and music executives.
