Choosing Music

13th April 2018

Today we were researching music for the beginning and end of our film. We needed some light hearted and upbeat music generally consisting of instruments like a piano rather than acoustic guitar. We decided to search for this sort of music because it is very common in dating shows and documentaries, so we figured that it would perfectly fit our film as it is a mockumentary mimicking a dating show. 

We searched for snippets of this sort of music on a few websites that supplied royalty free music, as we're not able to use music that is copyrighted which made it much more difficult to search for music that will fit.

The websites we have used to search for music so far have been:
After searching through multiple categories of music types such as calm, upbeat, jazz etc. and listening to roughly over 60 snippets, we decided on a track called 'Winter Wonder' from Purple Planet. 

As for the music at the end of the film during the choking scene and the credits rolling, we have not yet found something that is royalty free and fits the scene how we want it to. Ideally, we're looking for something similar to Patsy Cline's "She's Got You", however it is very difficult to find a track like it with lyrics without it being copyrighted.
