: I have a questionn regarding the use of music in a film.
: What kind of legal issues are there associated with using other peoples music?
ummmm im not sure what the laws are called but there is a good amount of paper work involved, and all artists whom created the music, or the record company itself must allow all of the music.
: Do I need the artist's agents permission?
yes
: If I want to use a song in a film secuence, what do I have to do to make it legal?call the record company and ask for appropriate paper work and then they must contact artists...
im not 100% but im pretty sure on most of this.
