"What's the music?"
Maia Derewicz - Hidden Word
There's actually a funny story about the music there (heheh) - the whole copyright thing is kind of up in the air. When I found the song, it was as part of a compilation, and under a Creative Commons License, on Archive.org. But later, I found out that the compilation may have been posted with that license without the artist's permission. Weeks after the film had been submitted, I still couldn't get a reply from the compilation people regarding her contact info. Just a while ago, they finally sent it to me, after I had already found out that I won. They chose the wrong time though, because I was very sick, and bogged down by schoolwork and projects. So I still have her contact info, but I've been hesitant to call because a) I was only a finalist, so as far as I know, it's not going to be broadcast, b) I'm scared of what would happen were she to demand that it be taken down from the site, or worse, sue me, c) the longer I wait, the more embarresing it will be when/if I do call her
"thanks for your contribution to the culture of fear."
Hahaha, you're welcome. honestly, that thought was constantly nagging at my concious the whole time I made it. In the end though, it's not so much a fear campaign (the rules explicitly stated that you couldn't use fear as a tactic), as it is a preperation one. If you live in an urban area, I think you should be prepared. |
