    Any thoughts on reporting videographers who don't obey music copyright laws? I am in a town with 3 other videographers as compeition, and they all use mainstream songs in their videos that the clients obviously ask for. I have had many clients come to me asking for a certain song and I have to explain to them the reasoning behind not risking my business for a single song.

    I would love to report their videos so that it is a fair playing field as it really kills it trying to do it the right way and getting less work because of it.

    @tylerknight

    that is a very interesting issue.

    Its got to be hard in the wedding industry to explain copywrite to people and sync rights. Everyone wants their pop music first dance song and they want to hear the music as it was that night.

    I could see letting it slide if they just dubbed in the actual music captured live even though its illegal (most likely was illegal to play the song for public at the wedding itself) If they are using pop music through out as BG mood music then I personally would report them as they are selling illegal services the same way I feel you would report someone who is using pirated software or stolen hardware to create their business. If you start to loose clients due them choosing the to go the illegal route I'd make a big deal about it.

    There are licenses that exist that allow companies to use music throughout. How do you know they haven't bought one for the film?

  • tylerknighttylerknight

    There is no licence that allows songs from major artists to be used on a wedding video budget. These are $2000 videos. If there is such a licence please direct me!

    In the uk, a company called PRS allows u to buy licensed specifically for this situation

    Anytime I have licensed pop top 40 songs for broadcast it has cost between $5k - $20k depending on song and who owns what rights. I'm sure a wedding could get it cheaper but I think it would still eat up almost the entire profit margin which is why most just steal. The chances of getting caught on wedding video is far less than broadcast so people roll the dice.

  • tylerknighttylerknight

    Exactly what I'm saying @ratlabproductions

    There is no affordable licensing options for event and wedding videographers here. I am spending $50 per track as it is on royalty free music which I don't mind.

    The point is that I am losing customers to these videographers who are just risking it and I am getting burned for taking the proper route. I'm not sure if it would be sneaky to report their videos for copyright infringement, but I mean they are using anything from the lumineers, mumford and sons, all the way to aerosmith and I'm sure they didn't pay royalties for any of those songs.
