- If you get NewMedia then you probably got the issue listing out all of the
- stock photography now out on CD. Another option for both photography and
- music is to hire a photography or music student to produce original work
- for you. They get some promotion and a nominal fee and you get rights-free
- music. If you don't have any "in" you can ask a department head for a
- promising student. They are happy to oblige. There ought to be a contract
- spelling out each person's future rights to the work.
- Last summer I did a prototype multimedia project on the Boston Freedom
- Trail which
- included alot of historic photographs and art. The biggest headache was
- obtaining the rights to use the materials from various sources. Avoid this
- if you can.
- Another great,relatively cheap source for transition and filler music is:
-
- QCCS Productions
- 1350 Chambers St.
- Eugene, OR 97402
- (503) 345-0212
-
- Their stuff is original and comes on CD or cassette. CD's are $60. The
- rights include broadcast, which is unusual. There are about 12 cuts per CD.
