Copyright (Music)...
The 'C in the circle', is used for composition, lyrics, musical score and any artwork associated with the production itself.
The second type of copyright for music, is the 'P in the circle', this is applied to the sound recording.
For our opening title sequence, we had to find a piece of copyright - free music to go with the footage. The reason why we can't use well-known music from the charts is because it's been copyrighted. This means that if we used it, we may be sued or fined.
Although your allowed to use samples, you must ask permission first-this makes it difficult if you wanted to use a song from a globally amplified artist, such as Beyonce. In saying that, you could contact the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers, BMI (Broadcast Music, Inc), or the SESAC.
The BB© (Bye Bye Copyright) is a Spanish organisation that specializes in distributing non-copyright songs. They make it possible for upcoming artists to create their own songs and allow them to be embedded with your own footage. I researched many of their songs and found one that sounded suitable for the final film, unfortunately, the song wasn't long enough to support the entire piece of footage,so decided against it.
