DISCUSSION: SOUND AND LIGHTING
NOTE TO STUDENTS: YOU MUST INCLUDE CREDITS IN YOUR FILMS. You will credit everyone in the movie, the camera person, any music, any photos or purchased video, and anyone you want to thank. THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT and judges will drop your points if you do not have CREDITS at the end of your film.
Music and Sound
What are some different ways to incorporate music?
Using the free music through iMovie is great, but I am sure it gets old to movie viewers. We can purchase rights to songs if you find something you would like to use from a royalty free music site such as www.soundbible.com
Where else can we get sound effects from without breaking copyright laws?
Other sites to explore for sound effects and music are:
https://www.audioblocks.com/royalty-free-audio/music
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyytiQuL-5S59OX1opqG-bQ
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Royalty free, does not mean payment free! We must pay for any music used in our films.
http://www.purple-planet.com - is royalty and FREE (no purchase) but you must credit them in your film credits with: "Credit: Music http://www.purple-planet.com"
https://www.free-stock-music.com - is royalty and FREE (no purchase) but you must credit them in your film credits. Credit information is on the page you download the song.
