Royalty Free Music. Also sometimes known as Kickstarter Trailer Themes. Now you might be wondering "Shady, what can you tell us about royalty free music and kickstarter trailer themes?". The answer is...nothing. Have you ever seen a commercial/ad/promotional video from a tabletop perspective? Maybe with minimalist solid colors and a cup of some kind of hot drink on the side? A royalty free song / kickstarter trailer theme is something that can capture all of that (I think). Now even though this video is a bit of a joke, I must also mention that there is nothing wrong with the genre/style itself. The fact that it is used so much is a testament to how effective it is. On top of that, there is nothing wrong with kickstarter either. A lot of amazing things have come from that site (a lot of questionable things too, but still). Anyway, I have no idea how I came up with the idea to make this video, but I'm glad I did. It was a lot of fun. Here is "Attempting to Make Royalty Free Music in 10 Minutes". I hope you enjoy!
