Copyrights are a set of boundaries in which legally protect any material that are covered by them. They protect material from being copied or stolen in attempt to remain individual in their idea, so that there doesn't become many of same concept, using the uniqueness of the original. In regards to music videos and songs themselves, artists will ensure their material has been copyrighted so that others do not copy and therefore the artist's image becomes more frequent and therefore their target audience become less interested as there are many people like them now, losing their exclusiveness.
Therefore it is vital in our situation to ask the record label in which our artist belongs to for permission to distribute a music video to her song so that they comprehend the innocence of our project rather than portraying ourselves as trying to 'steal' her song. The artist we have chosen to use is Nina Nesbitt. We identified after conducting secondary research that she belongs to Universal Record Group. After this step, we had to conduct further secondary research to gain a contact form. The method of contact we decided to use was e-mail.
