1. Choose the forum for the background music. For example, if you are making a for-profit motion picture, then you will need to contact the owner of the music (or record company) and request a right to use the music. In this instance, you would either need to pay an upfront fee for the song and/or a royalty fee. However, if you are making a non-profit project that is not distributed (e.g. school project, play or presentation), then licensing the music will not be a concern for you. 2. Choose the genre of music most appropriate for the scene. For example, cartoons frequently rely on classical music to establish the tempo for a scene. Plays typically rely on the performers to sing a song, while the background music provides the instrumental backdrop. By contrast, scenes in movies where there is little dialogue may use fuller background music (i.e. instruments and singing--a full song), and the genre of the music will depend on the type of scene (e.g. love scene, chase scene, etc.). Review the background music used in scenes similar to the one you seek to create as a template for the genres of music that would be most appropriate for your scene. rc lover
