    Using an artists music..... Paying for a track

    Hate to write this, but - as this often is a reality in the business : If you cannot get or cannot pay enough for the rights to use this very music, you should ask a professional composer to create a "sound alike". It's not very popular among composers, because mainly you ask people to copy...

    My Film BANNED from Shooting People.org!

    It's funny, I'm asking myself, if a company name like "shooting people" is such a tasteful choice.. not offended though, just thinking out loud. :)

    How I made money from music

    Hey guys, thank you for the feedback. I'm not saying I did it the RIGHT way and there is no other way, but at some point, it is you who has to decide if you are a professional or not, if your talent is worth money (and how much) or not. You will have to walk away from non budget or low budget...

    How I made money from music

    Well, I am sorry, but working for free is certainly not beating the crowd, in a place where everyone is ready to work for free. (If that is what you mean) If you want to get paid, here is a simple rule : Do not accept unpaid work. It may seem stupid, but it is as true as it is simple. If you...

    watch Please critique this animated 3D music video -- "Smitten"
