Congratulations. I think you'll probably be fine doing it all yourself. I mean hell, they're indie movie producers; I seriously doubt they'd try to screw you. And since it's a non-exclusive license, they can't screw you out of any other opportunities at the very least. Let us all know when the movie makes it to any theaters or DVD.

Thank 
you 
all 
once 
again 
for 
your 
help.

I've 
just 
received 
a 
mail 
from 
the 
producer. 
They 
asked 
me 
to 
fax 
them 
a
letter 
granting 
them 
non-exclusive 
SYNC, 
MASTER 
USE, 
PERFORMANCE 
and
VIDEOGRAM 
licenses 
for 
three 
tracks 
(they 
added 
another 
one: 
"Hope").

I 
can't 
afford 
a 
lawyer 
(and 
I 
don't 
think 
it 
would 
be 
worth 
anyway). 
So
I'm 
doing 
everything 
myself 
(writing 
the 
letter 
etc.)

If 
you're 
curious 
here's 
some 
info 
about 
the 
movie 
at 
imdb:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1130968/

They 
offered 
me 
a 
donation 
(don't 
know 
the 
amount, 
and 
no 
royalties),
plus 
possibly 
a 
second 
donation 
based 
on 
the 
success 
and 
the
distribution 
of 
the 
film.

This 
is 
the 
first 
movie 
for 
both 
the 
producer 
and 
the 
director. 
They
seem 
nice, 
and 
so 
I 
accepted.

Cheers,

-c.

Thank you, Michael!

That's exactly what I thought. I hope they'll find a distribution and 
make it to theaters. Btw, it's a triller! :-)
I'm really curious about how they're using the tracks.
