Just when I thought I was mere hours away from wrapping up my project, I now find I was given erroneous information regarding PUBLIC DOMAIN music. It appears if I wish to use ANY WWII music in my documentary, I must contact EACH publisher. So I have now spent the good part of yesterday and today, hunting down the publishers for each tune appearing in chapters one and two. While it is a royal pain in the arse, it's not what bothers me the most. It is now the fear of amassing even more expenses.
I am truly hoping these publishers are willing to work with an independent and just about broke producer. I guess only time will tell. I sent out four letters yesterday and will now have to send out another dozen or so this weekend.
I think I need a beer or two.
