If you're continuously in need of royalty free music, that probably puts you in one of several categories of media designers, photographers, and primarily filmmakers. One of the greatest needs seen in the industry is music for wedding videos.

Royalty free music is honestly not hard to come by. There are several options when it comes to downloading affordable songs for various uses. Though, that doesn't necessarily make them good options. Chances are, if you're creating any kind of media, it's for a specific client. Your client may not be capable of dictating between excellent stock music and a lesser quality… but most likely they will want the music for their project to be unique and make a connection with the content.

Standards are being raised across all genres of video production and it is becoming less likely to gain approval of your videos with substandard "stock" instrumentals. Most videos require music. Whether you're a photographer, wedding videographer, independent short-filmmaker, or you're producing low-budget documentaries, your imagery requires a soundtrack.

These categories also encompass ...
... in-house company training videos/ streaming, promotional church media, and blog/vlog videos. Any videos. Anywhere. Royalty free "refers to the right to use copyrighted material or intellectual without the need to pay royalties for each use or per volume sold, or some time period of use or sales." So, unless you're making your own music, you're in need of someone else's talents to provide for the overall experience of your media.

Most people don't have personal access to artists to request permission to use their work; enter music licensing houses. Licensing companies build the bridge between music and visual artists to make it as easy as possible for music to be accessible while gaining exposure and for filmmakers to stay within the legal perimeters and save them the time/ trouble/ money of trying to acquire music directly themselves. Photographers and filmmakers have enough on their plate in post-production without having to hassle with labels and the legal trappings of the industry.

If you are aiming to be legal in your creative pursuits and have a mutual respect for music artists and want them to be compensated for their equally laborious work-- then it looks like you're in the growing marketplace for royalty free music licensing.
