It is important that I have permission from music publishing companies before using the songs they have produced and published with different artists. Due to this I have ensured that I have contacted both record producing companies asking their permission to use their songs in my short film.
The first company was Warner Music who I tweeted asking permission to use the song Skinny Love by Birdy which will be the first main song played throughout the film in order to help the audience emotionally connect to the main character.
As my film is going to be longer than 3 minutes it is important that I have a second song. I have chosen How Long Will I Love You by Ellie Goulding as I believe the pace and tempo will allow the transaction between the two songs to be smooth and barely noticeable. I have Emailed Universal Music Group, the producer of this record, to ask permission to use the song in my short film.
My film relies heavily on the background music to help tell the story as there will be limited diegetic sound. The first part of my film will feature an upbeat pop song as the main character is seen studying whist listing to music which will be the song by Sigma ft Paloma Faith so I made sure that I contacted 3beat the producer of this record to ask their permission.
