Like a DJ, choosing the right kind of background music for video is very important

Background Music for Video

As video online gains evermore popularity, more and more producers are needing background music for video. They want to create the right mood and feel with their production. And background music can really help this and give their video a great lift. An online video is definitely less engaging where it only has a voice over and no background music.

Choosing the Right Background Music for Video

Obviously the subject matter of a video and the message that it is trying to get across will determine what kind of background music should be used. Is the video of a positive promotional kind? If so, instead of using the usual corporate style of music, try something new such as quirky production music. There are lots of tracks which have a fun and light feel such using instruments such as ukulele, glockenspiel, marimba. This background music for video creates a fun and engaging theme within a production. Further discussion on background music can be found on The Warrior Forum here.

Editing Background Music for Video

Once you have chosen the correct tracks for your project, then it is time to get editing. Many background music tracks for video come in different versions which will suit projects. Some have just the bed of music which will probably be less intrusive than the full track on a voice over. Sometimes the full track will have a lot of lead instruments which might interfere with any dialogue. Usually in library music there will be different cuts of the track as regards the length. There might be a 30 second version and a sting version which are good for advertising slots. In order to change the feel of a vido at a certain time it is a good idea to consider using two different tracks. This can create even more of a dynamic in the tone of a video. Some background music for video libraries price music per 30 seconds and so give better value for this lind of option.

People tend to like the ukulele as it is like the familiar guitar, only that it sounds small and cute. It always has a fresh and kind of young sound. This is probably one of the reasons that advertisers want to use it with their product. It has a sound of youth and fun and also sounds clean and fresh. Other instruments that tend to be used with ukulele stock music tracks are glockenspiel, xylophone, handclaps, electric piano and triangle. These musical instruments also create a similar feel and mood to the ukulele.

Take 5 on the Ukulele

This is an interesting version of the late Dave Brubeck’s classic jazz track, Take 5, performed on the ukulele. It’s such a diverse instrument where the sound is unique and familiar at the same time. Various instruments will come and go in commercials but the Ukulele seems to be one that is sticking around. People music like it and so, advertisers will continue to use it. This can’t be a bad thing and it has a fun positive sound.
