| Hey guys, I just went through my library of sound effects and made quick a war mix effects track.
if you find this helpful, feel free to use this mix in your non corporate productions.
I am considering opening up a shop and providing sound effects and music for non corporate video production, I would like to find a way to give a hand to the aspiring artists and small business while retaining my right to be an aspiring artist and a business. I am still looking around for the best place to open shop, and the best way to approach this.
file attached war mix 1 I hope you guys enjoy
~Ricky

| something I would like to share to possibly help protect the rights of the 3D artists on this forum, I would like to separate the notion of 3D artist vs 3D Designer.
The difference between creating art and a tool is this, and this isn't my opinion, this is what I would present as a case in a court of law to defend my use of a product or the infringement of my rights.
A drum hit, is not a song. a Gunshot is not a scene, and a monster is not a shrek.
if I create a single gunshot sound and sold it, that would be the equivalent of 3D Designer selling a male mesh. This is a tool that we created for others to express their own original art.
Else all piano notes would have been copywritten and no new songs would have been written after Mozart and the rest of his crew started playing classical music.
Now, If I took a male mesh, painted it green, gave it funny ears a warm face, a strong Jaw with Muscular arms in a Medieval time period and called him Shrek, that is now much like a song, a composition.
You can't just develop a low cut mesh and from now on all low cut mesh's are your copyright.
but you can create a line of clothing similar in theme and call it Wrangler.
Food for thought, I didn't feel right just trying keep the rights of my compositions without speaking up for artists in general.
If you create a man and a shirt , no, you can not copyright a tool.
If you create Shrek, Shrek is your story and your clothing and avatars belong to your story. When your Shrek is being used to make blockbuster movies without compensating you for those revenues made around shrek, thats infringement , when your shirt is being used in a hit movie, thats a tool and you can say hey, thats my shirt, isn't is pretty without feeling bad that you could have made a million dollars if you created the whole lead actor / persona / wardrobe that identified Shrek.
I can use the same shoes shrek did in a hit movie without getting sued. But I can't make shrek 4.
Im not selling you a gunshot, I started a movie with sound and allowing others to build on it. If hollywood likes the arrangement of sounds that I liked, there are societies that help compensate authors and people who make compositions. I want to keep that right, If someone simply wants to make a great demo movie to get work, or sell soap, teach kids, do a positive cause, when you buy that track, you buy the right to work with what I started. This is not a natural right, youtube is always pulling down videos that have unauthorized compositions. I want to allow the average user access to work that major companies hire me to do. Without the major label tab, I want the Undiscovered up and coming talent to have a chance to get what I give on an Industrial level. This does not mean I give up my rights as an artist, It simply means I want to remember where I came from.
no different than offering an LE version with no program features disabled. Go on, create, you have my blessing. When you make it big with a hollywood smash movie or a hit commercial I hope for your blessing in return and retain my rights to collect my royalties from the respected writers societies. Obviously I want my work to be good and make it to hollywood, but I'll believe in you when you couldn't afford the hollywood tab.
