Permission

Because the band The Black Keys already has a music video for the the song 'Lonely Boy',we had to ask for permission to use their song for our work. Here is a copy of the letter below:

Dear Copyright Holder,

We are A-Level students and we are writing to request your permission to use one of the latest tracks by The Black Keys.  The track we wish to use is 'Lonely Boy'.

With your permission, this task would be used in our current A-Level Media Studies project, which involves creating a music video to a popular music track, as well as producing an album and a magazine advert for the artist.

If we received your permission, this track would ONLY be used in an educational context and be viewed by our media class, our teacher and the OCR exam board moderator.  It would not be released to a large audience.

The artist and your company would of course be fully recognised throughout pre-production and the final video itself.  A copyright notice with wording supplied by you can be included in the records of the project.  If this is required, please send full details.
We look forward to hearing from you,
Regards
Bethany Gunn
