1) Right of use.
What is the difference between publishing rights and recording rights?
The difference between recording and publishing rights are that with publishing its something thats from the people in which own the copyright label to the certain piece of music, and the lyrics and composition within it. And the version of publishing only exists if the lyrics and words are written down.
With recording the rights it's the people who performed the version of music in which we want to use. An example would be for instance the sound recording copyright within the pianists recording of one of Beethoven's sonatas.

How would you go about clearing a piece of music for use in your film?
if we were to go about clearing a piece of music for our films, it would depend about the extent of copying that's taking place. Because if you're wanting the actor to just sing a few lines from a song then it's said to be unlikely that you would need to go about finding clearance for it. But then on the other hand if your actor was to sing the whole song then you would have to go about finding clearance as you would be reproducing the music that someone else owns. So if this was the case you'd have to find out who owns the rights to the music you're using by contacting the main publisher shown.

Can you use music in your sequence if the composer has died?
if a composer has been dead for the sum of over seventy years then it's said that the copyright terms would have expired so there would be no need to seek clearance for the composition that you want but we'd need to obtain clearance from the right holder to the recording.
What is incidental music?
incidental music is wheres there's music played within the background like a jukebox in a pub, because it's unconditionally and unintentionally there it would be classed as incidental to the work you've made.
This has to be taken carefully because sometimes background music in a film is referred as incidental music. However if the music playing in the background is clear and playing loudly ect, then its being used in the sense of copyright, so therefore you'd need to get full clearance.

2) Creative commons.
What is Creative Commons?
the creative commons is an organisation of which uses many several licences to expand the range of things which can be classed as free to use, things that we can share and use legally. This nowadays is used on a large majority of music because a lot of music is licensed and comes across that we cannot use it due to copyright infringements if we use music in public projects and also we cannot use it because its unusable.
Why does it exist?it exists to counter a very strong structure that restricts us when it comes to using most music. This is because the want to offer an alternative to us as people but depending on the licence certain music can be used by anyone.
Choice of music:
the music in which i chose is one of which i used as the backing track of sound for a project. The reason why i picked this one is because there's a strong mysterious ambience tone with a steady deep beat to it and it gives of thoughts of something thats rather eerie and mysterious to mind.
This music was created by Klankbeeld and as shown on the photo below has a Creative Commons stamp, so therefore the track is licensed and anyone who uses it cannot change it and needs to give credit to them.
