Cinematc music
 
One of my biggest time consuming during editing is to find the right music.
sometimes I could spend days and still not be able to find what I want.
I usually look for movies soundtracks.
My editing style is kind of film/ documentary with time shifting.
I will try to post first 15 min of one of the wedding that I did just that you could understand what I am looking for.
I hope you will enjoy the movie and I really hope I could find with your help allot of music that will help with my type of editing.

Thank you,

What about your music resource. I find my music at amazon under movie soundtracs.
I would love to hear where other find music.
Thank you so much for taking the time.

Great video Dror... Sorry but I cant help you with your music question. My methods don't differ much from yours.

Thank you Stephen for taking the time and watch the video.
I really hope someone will come with this Gold Mine answer since this will expedite my editing by much. ( and maybe others)

Wow. That's really really nice.

Dror Levi May 18th, 2010 03:50 PM

Thank you Joe.

What about your self, where do you find your music?
I know I am a pain in the ..... for asking over and over but I really want to get to the bottom of it.

I look on I-tunes under soundtracks. You can do a search for Hans Zimmer, he usually has some nice stuff. What is the name of the song you used for this video? It is awesome.

Nicholas Valentine May 18th, 2010 07:25 PM

Hi Dror, I watched your video, very good. To answer your question I look for promotional music (music featured in trailers) along with soundtracks to give the movie a more cinematic feel (sound-wise). Try CDBaby along with iTunes and Amazon.

Dror Levi May 19th, 2010 09:17 AM

I notice when i searched under Epic Music some of the results were almost what I was looking for
but it was more for a trailer then a background music.
Does anybody knows under what category i should search.
Searching under soundtrack is to general and allot of time consuming to find what I want.
Again thank you so much for your help.

For royalty free music I use shockwave-sound.com. Can be a little expensive, but at least it's royalty free. Digital juice also has good stuff. Go here: StackTraxx Layered Music Libraries by Digital Juice

Hope this helps

Your music choices for your film were great. Problem we all face is that use of those tracks is likely a copyright violation, and we are forced to seek royalty free sources.

On Digital Juice, if you watch for sales, you can get a lot of decent tracks royalty free for a great price.

Sonic Fire Pro also is great, and Sony had Cinescore, with a limited amount of tracks that were nice.

Another interesting source that can provide some interesting and some ethnic flavors, is Magnatune.com.

Ditto Chris.

Well, I edit wedding videos for friends and family only. So I don't get paid. And therefore....I use the tracks from iTunes. I'm sure I've violated some copyright law somewhere but my work will never get published nor will I make money off of it. Basically what I do is more like a slightly upscaled home video.

Lately I did a wedding for my wife's cousin and I used Craig Armstrong's "Portuguese Love Theme" (from the movie "Love Actually) and Yurima's "Maybe".

It's a great site to find great music. All royalty free and reasonably priced.
