Tom Nash will introduce some principles about selecting music for your videos. Says Tom: “You generally should not use your favorite music in a video presentation. Why not? Come and find out.” Topics will include:
● Why you should use music in your videos.
● Why you should NOT use your favorite music.
● The difference between foreground and background music, and why it matters.
● The dangers of copyright infringement, and how to avoid it.

Jonathan Williams will share some free and affordable ways to locate or create music you can use. Says Jonathan: “There are an increasing number of either free or low-cost sources of music for videos, and we will demonstrate several of them, including some that use AI.”
Topics will include:
● Free or low-cost music libraries.
● Demonstration of software that generates original music for your presentation.
