Copyright letter

Dear Young Money Entertainment


I am a representative of a student media project in which we wish to use the track ‘Fireworks’ from the album ‘Thank Me Later’ by Drake.


The project involves creating a music video for the track, as well as producing an album cover and magazine advertisement for the artist.


With your permission, this track would only be used in an educational context and be viewed by my media class, my teacher and the OCR exam board moderator. It will not be uploaded to any public video websites.


Of course, the artist and your company would be fully recognized and credited throughout the pre-production and the final video itself. A copyright notice, with wording supplied by you can be included in the records of the project. If this is required, please send full details.

I look forward to hearing from you


Regards,


John Spooner
