I had a lot of trouble finding good background music for the videos I was making until I found a program that you can use to make your own music and now I don't have to worry about breaking copyright laws either.
When I first started making my own videos I didn't really know anything about copyright infringement or about any of the copyright laws until I submitted a video on YouTube.com and received one of those copyright infringement warning messages. After reading on some of the websites about these laws I started to think about other ways I can get music for my videos, I never really though about making my own.
I assumed you would need to either be musically minded or a be a musician to use music making software but when I done some research on music beat maker programs I was actually pretty shocked at how easy it looked to make your own music.
So I started making my own music for videos I was making and turns out everyone I show really liked the videos and the music. Now I make background music for videos and games for a small fee which makes me think I could start making a living from making music beats for people as a business of some kind. But for now it is just for fun and some spare cash here and there.
Make sure the software you choose has lots of training videos and has good reviews. There are some really good ones out there for under so you don't have to spend a lot of money to get started. Also make sure the software has plenty of sound kits and samples already built-in, this way you won't have to fork out any extra money to get the sounds you want.
If you have ever put a video on YouTube.com or any video sharing website that has someone elses music in it did you know you could be breaking the law? If you don't want to receive a nasty email like I did then I recommend you check out music making software or try and use your own music in some way.
It's really not as hard as you may think, and you will be surprised how much talent is hiding inside of you. When I first created my music for my videos I was pretty proud and my friends thought they where really good as well.
