Re: Music for Corporate Video

Vince,

Not an angry response just one of shock and disbelief. I don't know why this shocks me, but it still does. I cannot see how people justify this. I make a lot of one-offs for presentations and I never allow the client to chose the music unless they agree to license it. I am upfront about this and obtain at least an estimate of what the license will cost before I begin the project. Sometimes the client pays and sometimes they opt for royalty free music. To me the "For your eyes only" slates are a cop out.

OK, I'll get off of Stephen's soapbox.
