Making Films Using Music FREE Event

Calling all film-makers, musicians and visual artists with a moving image practice that incorporates music ...

:: Making Films, Using Music FREE Event ::
- Monday 5th December 2005 -


Most artists and moving image practitioners will at some point consider using music in their work, whether existing tracks, music performed from existing scores or working in collaboration with a composer.

Accessing and incorporating music and sound material into moving image work is technically relatively easy, however problems can arise if the copyright for this material resides with someone else and the work
is to be shown in a public context – galleries, cinema, television, etc.

This free Own-It.org seminar will:
  • Outline the legal facts and issues involved in using copyrighted material
  • Provide a step by step guide to the processes you need to go through to ensure that you have cleared the use of any music incorporated in your work.
  • Include case studies and real life examples from an artist’s producer, information handouts and an opportunity for questions.

Using music in moving image work: what to do, who to contact, how to get through the paperwork when using other people's music in film and video work - all of this will be reviewed in the Making Films, Using
Music event.
