Where does everyone get their music?

[canadian drone videos]

I use Audio Jungle, lots of great stuff, sound effects too. It’s usually around $30-50 a tune for 10 000 copies, easy to pick through as lots of details about the music can be seen before you even hit play.

I use epidemic sound. Absolutely love it! Everything from music to a huge library of sound effects.
Here’s a vid I put out today.

YouTube audio library is decent and free. Artlist is decent too but the pricing of pretty much any site is cost prohibitive unless you're pumping out videos constantly.

Link?


I've checked a few things by Googling free music and there are some sites which will have some downloads with Creative Commons license.

But I just throw on tracks just to have something. I don't even edit my videos, for now. I'm not trying to monetize either. Just use Youtube since it's free and it's an easy way to view the videos later on TV or any other device.

In a couple of occasions, I got notified that I can't use the music unless I attribute the source so I just put the link in the description for the video.

It’s not free unfortunately. But definitely worth the money. I use it when I stream too.

I have used SonicFire for years and try to buy when they have a sale. Just picked up 5 more songs for $5 Cyber Monday. Best part is it "writes" songs to the exact length of your video.

I bought a years subscription to Soundstripe. I've downloaded enough songs of various genres to last the rest of my life.

I use www.purple-planet.com who I think are based in the U.K. but have a super range of short pieces that I personally like and use. They segment their work by mood/style etc so it is easy to find a piece that suits. Usual requirement to acknowledge the source in the YT description but I always also make a point of crediting them in my film. Hope this helps

For what little I have done so far, bensound.com has been good to me.

Outstanding, I’ve yet to test my M3 on video with a sunset, yours looks excellent. Well done indeed. The birds near the beginning, was that done using a digital pan and crop in post or was the drone itself doing a spin? Excellent results.

Very nice footage- was the sunset 1:12-1:37 a hyperlapse?Did you keep the drone static (e.g.: not fly- just hover).

That was the drone itself spinning. You can tell by that little lens flare moving across the bottom of the video.

It was a static 4k60 shot with a 600% speed increase. Thanks for watching and great question

Sorry for my confusion. Please break that down for me. I am going out tomorrow 5:30 Am for a sunrise.
Using Mavic 2 Pro. I am shooting D-log. I usually shoot 24 fps. I usually shoot video mode/hyperlapse, 2 second interval for as long as the battery lasts. I choose the highest number of shoots the drone will allow. I edit DNG's in LRTimelapse.

Please can you give me the settings I can use tomorrow AM? I can increase speed to 600% in Premiere Pro0 that I get.

No problem.
The DJI Mavic 3 does not have a hyperlapse function yet so I had to basically do it manually.
I took the drone up, hovered in one place, and recorded a 4k60fps shot for 3 or 4 minutes.
When I got around to editing the video, in premiere pro I increased the speed of that shot by 600% which gave it that hyperlapse / timelapse feel.
Its not the most 'data efficient' way to do it, I probably could have went with a lower fps, but I did 60 in case any ducks or birds flew in front of the camera. I left myself with options.

It also helped that it was really quite windy and the clouds were moving fast.

Thanks- I'll give it a try.

The free sources became a hassle, so I bought the Lifetime subscription for $100 when Audiio.com launched. It has been much easier finding music, even though I don't make a lot of videos.
