    00:00 - Video start (duh)
    01:46 - The musical "elephant in the room" that affects every wedding filmmaker.
    04:30 - Why it is SO IMPORTANT for you to keep creative control of your music!
    06:34 - How do you balance creative wedding films with happy couples?
    07:25 - Questions I ALWAYS ask a bride and groom about music.
    10:02 - One last question that GUARANTEES you and the couple are on the same page regarding music.
    10:48 - A MASSIVE pitfall that took me years to learn to avoid.
    13:09 - The final thing you can to do help you choose great music in your wedding films!
    14:58 - Let's recap!

    Definately one of the hardest things about wedding filmmaking in my eyes. Glad you touched this subject. Sometimes takes me a week to find the perfect song that fits the couple and the footage of the day. Thanks!

    • @Ben-fq1lj
      @Ben-fq1lj 7 років тому +2

      Clay Newman yeah, it takes me hours of hard searching to find a good song. I truly believe that a song contributes 1/3rd to whether or not your film is great (with editing, footage content, etc.. being the other 2/3rds). I've seen so many videos where the footage looks amazing, but it doesn't matter cause the music doesn't match the feel of the footage at all.

    A terrific instructional video. I'm a landscape photographer who has been asked to shoot stills of a wedding (for money, this time). I'm going to produce a slideshow video in addition to prints, and I realize how important music is. This has been very informative, particularly regarding licensing. Thanks !

  • @lamppostmedia6447
    @lamppostmedia6447 7 років тому +1

    Wondering what your (super basic) workflow looks like for editing... At what point do you pick music and start matching the clips with it? First thing? Would be so great to know your opinions on what comes first... Organizing clips, finding hero shots, finding music, color grading, etc, etc. Maybe a future vid?

  • @dennyyohanes8677

    Great video Matt. The bit about talking to the couples and how you discuss and go over their likes and dislikes was really useful. I can't believe how many people still think it is fine to just use any old commercial music then start quoting UA-cam cover the license!

    Interesting Tony Romo story. Definitely agree that you should be 100% sure that you can use the music legally. There are so many places to get it legally now (free and paid) that there is no excuse, but in any case know your license! We just started a royalty free music business. We make and sell the music directly, just 2 dudes making music, no middle man, no questions as to legality.

    What if UA-cam allows you to post the song with ads? E.g. Ellie Golding's "Love Me Like You Do", as indicated in UA-cam audio library. Would you be safe in that case?

    • @whoismatt
      @whoismatt  7 років тому

      +martinkun167 I wouldn't risk it. Just because UA-cam has a deal with the music label for monetization doesn't mean they'll be okay with you using their music for commercial work.

  • @DENMONKEY
    @DENMONKEY 5 років тому

    I've been doing some vids for friends and families weddings but usually just as an aside. so footage has been limited with no real expectations, so getting a cut to fit a song, say 3-4 mins has thus far been easy. The current one I'm editing is a different story, i went all in with multiple cameras and it looks like this one will be 20 minutes or so. I've knocked up a few smaller edits but ideally would like to piece together a long version. I have some audio (speeches etc) I can work in but I'm struggling with how to work multiple songs into the long one.
    any suggestions for how you manage a long edit would be appreciated.
    cheers

  • @shaunZ96
    @shaunZ96 7 років тому

    What if I am just creating a personal music video or doing a friend's wedding for free? I know you have answered this question, but if I did use a current popular song to one of videos, what would happen to me? We can not longer create fan based videos anymore? Like parodies?

    • @whoismatt
      @whoismatt  7 років тому

      Hey! That's still dangerous because it doesn't really matter if you are using music for a free video or not, it's still copyright infringement. If you used a parody of a song it would be allowed, but if you are just making a video and you haven't changed the song at all, that would still be illegal. (I'm not a lawyer lol, this is just my understanding)

    Thanks.

    • @whoismatt
      @whoismatt  3 роки тому

      I never use it. If the couple really wants it you could offer it to them in an offline format and tell them they can’t upload it. :)

      +Chloe&Amy hey! That's a pretty big name song. It's gonna be hard to license and most likely expensive. I would check and see if song freedom has it. If they don't I would email them and see if they could get it. Hope that helps!

    Hi Matt
    We just finished up a wedding and I recorded from the speaker and from that we recorded the music from that night, if I play those clips in my video with them dancing to that music is that legal? Or do you not use any music from that night and just do an overlay of music that is legal? Thanks for all you do

    Hi Matt! Thank you do much again for this video. I've watched it already when it just came out but since i'm stuck in a project with music, I thought I'll watch it again. We always ask the couple what genre they like (we never ask what they dislike so we are going to that from now on) but this couple really wants a 50's-60's feel to it. When her father gave her away al green was on with the number let's stay together. So they like oldies music. The couple want their VOWS in the film as well but I can't find a song that looks nice under spoken words (we are from the Netherlands so it's not like English that sounds amazing, if you know what I mean). So im just stuck. Lost three days of editing just by searching music. The couple knows that I make the decision for the music but i'm so afraid that they won't like the music. Please please help.. What would you do.. So you have any recommendations? We always use musicbed and premiumbeats. Hope you have the time in your very busy shedule to help me.. I would be very greatfull.. Loves, kim

      Hey! Music Bed is really good about helping you find music! If you email them and tell them you are looking for songs with 50's - 60's feel and no lyrics I'm sure they can help you find that! Hope that helps!

    Love this video! Did you ever make one on meeting with the couple? I'd love to have more guidance on that meeting and what other questions you ask, either via a questionnaire or in person.

    I live in a very rural area where most of the weddings I shoot want country music. If you're rather new to shooting weddings, I'd rather not have to pay for music to use. I've found some free music sites that are royalty free like Kevin MacLeod. You just gotta give credit to them.

    • @whoismatt

      +GrantiverusRex yup Kevin Macleod is great!

    Hey Matt, I'm a former radio guy. I get the licensing part for the hit songs. But when it comes to the music you use, is there a difference between licensed music and royalty free tracks? Or is it all the same thing? Thanks.

    • @whoismatt
      @whoismatt  7 років тому

      +Sharpe Dunaway hey Sharpe! I'm not an expert on this, but Technically I believe the tracks aren't royalty free, you're paying for the license so you don't have to pay royalties on the tracks. It's quite similar though.

    • @whoismatt

      +Nehuen Gonzalez Cappola I would reach out to whoever filmed it and see if they can tell you any info about the couple.
