Foreground music is the focus of a production, such as in music videos and a critic’s music review. In making a music video normally the artist or recording label holds the contract. Only a small portion of the song is allowed to be played without copyright. Exception to the rules consist of using music that is widely recognized, play music with lyrics during a dialog scene, use music for reasons other than mood enhancement, use catchy or busy music during a dialog scene, mix styles of music within a program. Student videos shown only in the classroom as part of a class project may include copyrighted music with instructor approval. If the video will be played outside the classroom, copyright licenses must be obtained for the program. (On a school wide distribution system, film festival, over a cable system, on the internet, an outdoor event, at any public location) The issues of copyright and permissions must be addressed for any student production that contains music and is presented or broadcast outside the classroom. The music used in productions may come from various sources: professional and commercial recordings, unrecorded sheet music, original music, music in the public domain, music libraries. If you record a live concert you must contact the company listed on the recording label, you will need to request a copyright license.
