Naming conventions for music libraries?
Posted: Mon Nov 06, 2006 9:01 pm
Are there any sort of naming conventions or suggestions or do's and don'ts for music libraries?Some of you have heard my violin piece that I temporarily named Life's List. I've never been crazy about that title, though, and only named it that because it sounded a bit "Schindler's List"-ish.However, the piece itself has always sounded a little french to me, and a bit romantic. So, I prefer the title "De tout mon coeur", which means "With all my heart". Maybe that's too sappy of a title -- although maybe less so when said in French. Is having a french title going to be a problem if it goes onto a music library, though? For example, let's say that someone like Pump Audio picks it up. Is the title "De tout mon coeur" too obscure, and not descriptive enough?Having never been a video producer, I don't know what goes through a video producer's mind when he/she is scrolling through audio titles for that "perfect" audio cue to put in the scene.Are they any do's and don'ts for naming your songs for music libraries?
