Permission to use song is granted!

Today was awesome because I got permission to use the song "One Of Those Summer Days" by the group Rhye in my film opening.

I began emailing the manager of the band right when this project began but they finally got back to me with the okay today. I explained in an email that it would be used for educational purposes and that no profit whatsoever would be made off of the opening and so they were okay with it.

This is great because I really envisioned the first 30 seconds of the song as a nice background music for the initial establishing shots of my opening, and now I can edit them into my film!
