Editing Digest - Music Composition

Due to the fact that the piece of music we used in our film is only available for use for education, we could not upload any versions of the film that featured it to the internet. This posed a problem as we needed to do so to link it to our blogs. To remedy this, we made You Tube friendly versions with music we had made ourselves. We made the song so that it was in the same key and chord sequence as You Don't Know so that it would hold the same exophoric reference as we still wanted to convey. So that we could do so quickly and partly so that we could experiment in music making, we used the iPad's Garageband App. We used only Guitar so that it kept the retro feel of the original and didn't sound like a cheesey remake, just to avoid Copyright. The Chord sequences was C-Am-Dm-G, just like the original. Most songs feature this same chord structure, if not sequence so we are not infringing on the rights of EMI who own the song. Overlaying over this chord sequence, we added arpeggio's so that the song was embellished and not boring.
