an original piece of music from our catalogue, as background
for a secondary medium, such as film,
television,
internet/podcasting,
gaming,
or other format of marketing or advertising, corporate
or otherwise.
Otherwise, no license is needed, if
you only plan to download and enjoy the music as the
listener/end-user. |

MUSIC LICENSING FAQ. |
| IS THIS ROYALTY-FREE
MUSIC? |
| No, the music found at Day For Night
is not royalty-free. It is bespoke music and original composition
made by musical fine artists whose means of support and compensation
is provided through royalties and fees from licensing. |
| WHAT KIND OF MEDIA DISTRIBUTION
REQUIRES A MUSIC LICENSE? |
| This license involves recorded music
used to accompany any form of broadcast or distribution that
is intended for other users; ie, anything other than for personal
use.
This includes, but is not limited to the following: advertising
music (also known as commercial jingles), cinema (theatre)
music, production music for corporate presentation and corporate
videos, background music for radio spots, shows and announcements,
feature film music used either incidentally, or as part of
the soundtrack, music featured in the opening or closing title
sequence of a film; music used in advertisement for film as
part of a theatrical or online trailer; music used as part
of a commercial or corporate DVD production; music for television,
used in smart tags and targeted television advertising, music
for games, internet-based background music for websites, and
others. |

MUSIC LICENSING FAQ. |
| DO PODCASTS REQUIRE A
MUSIC LICENSE? ARE THESE TREATED THE SAME AS MP3 DOWNLOADS? |
| Licensing of music for Podcasts
are treated as though part-download (due to the MP3 format
used) and part-broadcast (due to the syndicated RSS publication
feed which syndicates via podcatching applications like iTunes).
Day For Night makes specialty licensing rates available,
which are advantageous to the individual podcaster, and which
are nominally only a little more than the price of a personal
MP3 download, but cost less than radio distribution. The podcast
license is both a legally-binding bridge between the content
creator and the podcast producer. Distributing 3rd-party digital
downloads of any copyright-controlled music, where the copyright
holder is not the self, is otherwise illegal.
|
| DO I ALWAYS NEED TO CONTACT
A MUSIC SUPERVISOR BEFORE OBTAINING A LICENSE? |
| Not necessarily; however, a pair
of synchronization documents will need to be produced upon
request before manufacturing and distributing any music licensed
from us. You will more than likely require a Master-Use confirmation
and/or a Synchronization/Theatrical Performance Use Confirmation
form, if the licensed music is for distribution (such as on
DVD).
Please contact Day For Night directly with any such requests
at this link, and we will be very happy
to help you get started! |
