Music licensing for festival content requires strategic coordination between artists, promoters, and rights holders. SHMONG TV navigates these complexities through several approaches including obtaining sync licenses for specific artist performances featured in promotional videos, creating short-form social content under fair use provisions, replacing live audio with licensed alternative tracks for extended promotional use, documenting performances where organizers hold music rights, and producing behind-the-scenes content with properly licensed background music. We advise festival organizers on platform-specific policies including Instagram's music detection and YouTube Content ID, maximizing promotional reach while respecting copyright requirements and maintaining positive artist relationships essential for ongoing festival success.
