Music

  Quentin Tarantino has always been an inspiration to me, and is one of the reasons why I am in love with film. This is why I like to read and listen to interviews with him so I could get tips and tricks on how to make a good film. In the "Tarantino Collection" he states, 

"One of the things I do when I am starting a movie, when I'm writing a movie or when I have an idea for a film; is, I go through my record collection and just start playing songs, trying to find the personality of the movie, find the spirit of the movie. Then "boom" eventually I'll hit one, two or three songs“ or one song in particular, oh this will be a great opening credit song." Click

  This was one of the main reasons why I pushed so hard to get the copyrights to the song "I don't want to set the world on fire" by the Ink Spots. When I was first coming up with a movie idea, I sat listened to my music archive of over 5,000 songs, ranging from Kendrick Lamar to The Beatles to Frank Sinatra. When this song came on, it clicked in my head. I immediately felt a connection and a mood and feeling toward the film with this song and I knew if I couldn't get this song, it was back to the drawing boards. But as of last week, the publishing company got back to me and confirmed that I could use their song based on a couple of conditions. One, I am not allowed to distribute the film for any profit without the consent of the company. Two, I have to include their name.

Now that I have permission to use the song, the film will be set as scheduled and the original plot will be used.
