What do they mean by :15 second tracks
Hi,
Hope you're well.
I just came across the listing looking for SIMPLE and BRIGHT instrumental music for TV and Film.
I was wondering if someone could tell me what they mean by:
"They want :15 (fifteen second) tracks that begin PLAYFUL and PIQUE the viewer's CURIOSITY ("What IS this product?") and then "RESOLVE" or CHANGE at around the :10 mark into something more LUXURIOUS or CAREFREE."
Does that literally mean they want an entire piece to be :15 secs? Or that you can cut it up and get :15 sec clips that are usable in and of themselves? Something else entirely?
Have the same question about the change at :10 secs. Is that in the beginning of the song and every time the song goes back to the verse?
Thanks!
Bobby

Long intros are highly discouraged on this one

No 'Da Capo, Al Fine' on this one! 
Bobby, if I can intrude & throw in my question in your post...
I was wondering if ya'll had understood this listing to be just a single instrument (similar to those described) or a track featuring that instrument over other stuff (like rhythm, etc.). I'm leaning towards the solo, but just wanted another opinion...
Thanks!
Christian

I understood it to be more than one instrument.
