  1. I meant from the movies he worked on tracks from people he knows if he asked i'm sure he could get and if this a track with vocals but the background is cool maybe a remix ( which by the way would most likely tie together very nicely ) you think i would do a rant about this and say hey go rip off a movie track so no not music from movies a note about borrowing music no pun the copyright covers that an example would be i borrow your lawnmower to cut my lawn you don't even know its gone and hey i figure if you want it back come and get it ( if you can find it ) and as long as i don't damage so what another extreme way of looking at this Ford makes a commercial and uses a Rolling Stone track with out asking and then they say hey we're not making money off this we're just showing our car and when people come in they are buying the car not the song (so what wrong with that ) everyone equates this to just money and it is the over riding factor but the other point its just proper to ask for Big projects you can contact the Harry Fox agency for permission and pricing (its easy and cheaper then you would think ) now don't get me wrong here I am very sympathetic to this problem of artist needing tracks in this particular case however there should be tracks available to HomeSlice and again it's a demo that reflects his hard work that I would think he would like to get out over the place so hows this, if one could avoid it just don't do it
  2. that is sweet!
  3. Thank you Jimd. I do realize that, even though I am in no way compromising the commercial value of the original music, I still do not have the rights to the music. I have read that YouTube has agreements with most of the major labels to allow users to post stuff that includes various pieces of music. So I just did a search on YouTube for "Pink Floyd" and saw many videos that were definitely not uploaded by the copyright owners. So I figured I would just upload it and if I get asked to take it down, I will. But I have not done much research into it. Do you know anything about the YouTube agreement with music companies? Thank you Mark. Thank you Michel, That is one more reason to focus on Shorts instead of spending 5 years making 2 feature length movies I'll look at the other stuff I have done and see if any of it is good enough to put in there. Detbear, those sound like very good points. I'll start working on Draft #3. The music agreement as i understand it is for a new music section of utube where artist such as Madonna ect.. will allow their music to be played as far as i know no agreement has been made to allow people to upload music or place music on their vids somehow i doubt that will change are you sure you can't find a track from the movies ( instrumental ) that will get it across take the time to find something ( really you put a bunch of work into this you don't want to have to pull it )
  4. well i won't get into a hugh debate over this however i've been in this business for a very long time and its not proper to use other artist music and or anything for ones own projects without permission and like i said i would not use someone else's footage to make a demo I'm sure there are tracks he could use and as artist it would be nice if everyone would respect each others works another way to look at is he's using someones music to enhance his work which it clearly does so if he gets the gig he profits from that as far as getting a job no behind close doors it might not matter but why would you want to live behind closed doors especially when you've put so much of your hard work into it and bty all he has to do is contact the Harry Fox agency and get permission
  5. the cuts works as you can see having a good professionally recorded track really makes your work spark but you'll still need to fix the first and last bit (more the last the berry bit ) it falls flat after the whole thing so you need to punch it up I like the opening no pun (it could use a bit of help in the fx dept) however can of worms time your using a music track without permission a BIG NO NO some might turn a blind eye others won't and it will prevent you from posting it on the web there must be an instrumental track from those movies that will work right ? look at it this way I can't take a section from "The Lord of the Rings" and set a score to to get work I could to it behind close doors but thats about it but what good is that, close door is exactly that closed doors (don't go down that path)
  6. I know I'm going to get in trouble for this but the audio is killing your work the vo's, background, music ect.. do not sit in the track or mix very well and their is no over all environment to the tracks and when its there is it's not on the mark it might help to find a music bed for the demo and then cut to maybe so vo tracks I found it better just to turn off the sound and watch your work which by the way is very good your not over working the action which is very nice ( your not heavy handed in your work) if your going to make a demo you have use that same sharp eye and ears and make the tuff call and make it pro as far as clips go i would stay away from those real short ones that end before they start of course this is just my opinion and my apologies if i ticked anyone off
