What would movies be without music? It is so crucial to have the right music for a movie. Box office standing can rely on the music of a movie, even if the movie isn’t that great. Music is very important to the movie industry as well as movies to the music business. ... When using music for motion pictures, there comes along a lot of different practices and industry tactics and terms for usage. It’s usually not very difficult to use music in movies, as most record companies and Artists are willing to do it for the sake of the promotion of their music. ...
In the film industry a filmmaker must obtain two different kinds of licenses to any song or musical composition before he can use that song in a film; the synchronization license, or a "synch license," and the performing rights license. ...
The synch license gives the filmmaker the right to synchronize the music with the film or video production, to literally record the music onto the film or tape. ... The performing rights license gives the filmmaker the right to show the film or video to the public with the recorded music. The performing rights license is needed when the filmmaker, theater, video distributor, or other distribution outlet exhibits the film. It is the responsibility of the filmmaker to secure a performing rights license, even if the film is eventually sold to a major studio. ... Grand performing rights give the filmmaker the right to use the song dramatically; for example, a movie based on a song or a sequence in a film edited to match the music. Small performing rights give the filmmaker the right to use the music as background sound.
