Sound is one of the most crucial elements in a successful film or video, and music is at the heart of it. Hark Productions actually began as a music production company, so not only do we appreciate and understand the importance of sound and music, we make it one of our chief priorities in every production.
Every project gives every client access to quality music, regardless of budget. Included in every quote is a selection from our extensive royalty free music library. For higher end jobs, we will have your production scored with original music by one of our composers - giving youyour own unique musical signature that you can use forever - in any kind of application - forever.
Royalty Free vs. Customized Music
Royalty free music is great. In today's market, you can use fantastic music with exceptional production quality at little cost to you. The drawback with royalty free music is that you don't have an exclusive license - anybody else can use the exact same music in their project. Not a big deal if you're using your music in a local TV ad seven states away from the other person who's using the same music - a bigger deal if someone's using the same music in their video at a booth right next to yours at a tradeshow.
On the flip side, customized or "original" music costs more, but is yours exclusively. And with our arrangement with our composers, there are no additional fees involved. Tracking needle drops and getting hit with annual renewal fees doesn't happen when you contract original music with Hark Productions - it's yours to use whenever and however you want, forever, at no additional expense to you.
