Copyright Permission

This blog post include an email that I (Nadine) made as an permission to use the song, the email will be sent to the singer's label which is 88rising. 

Reflection: Sending an email to the artist's label for copyright permission in an MV project is a crucial step, demonstrating a commitment to legal compliance and professional collaboration. This formal communication establishes clear terms, protects the project from legal issues, and fosters transparency. The email trail provides a documented agreement, serving as tangible proof of the understanding between the filmmaker and the rights holder, ensuring a responsible and legally sound creative process.

Subject: Request for Copyright Permission: NIKI's "Oceans & Engines" for Media Studies Project

Dear 88rising Team,

I hope this email finds you well. My name is Nadine Diva, and I am writing to you on behalf of my group. We are currently working on a media studies project, specifically a music video, as part of our coursework.

After careful consideration, we have chosen the song "Oceans & Engines" by NIKI for our project. We believe that the thematic elements and musical composition of the song align perfectly with the creative vision we have for our music video. NIKI's artistry resonates with our concept, and we are excited about the opportunity to bring her work to life in our project.

Understanding the importance of copyright protection and respecting the intellectual property of artists, we are writing to formally request permission to use "Oceans & Engines" in our media studies project. We are aware that 88rising manages the rights to NIKI's music, and we would like to ensure that all necessary permissions and licenses are obtained to proceed with our project.

Our project is non-commercial, and its sole purpose is educational, aiming to showcase our understanding of media studies concepts and filmmaking techniques. We assure you that the music video will not be used for any commercial purposes, and we are committed to giving proper credit to NIKI for her contribution to the project.

To facilitate the process, we kindly request information on the specific steps and requirements involved in obtaining the necessary permissions for the use of "Oceans & Engines" in our media studies project. Additionally, if there are any associated fees or forms that need to be completed, please provide guidance on how we can proceed.

We understand the importance of protecting intellectual property, and we want to ensure that our project complies with all relevant copyright laws and regulations. We appreciate your time and consideration of our request and look forward to receiving guidance on the necessary steps to move forward with this exciting project.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and we eagerly wait your response.

Sincerely,

Nadine Diva M.
