Artistic License Music: Difference between revisions

* Type 1 is on the performance end, where an actor is playing a performer and is obviously NOT playing it in real life. Sometimes this is [[Lampshaded]] for comic effect, and thus [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]].

* Type 2 is on the writing or editing end, where the writer or editor is not familiar with music. This applies to incorrect terminology, obvious dubbing or computerized music. This is less common because usually higher-end productions come with a composer, sound editor, music supervisor, etc, and have decent sound libraries.

 

Note: Lip-synching does not apply here, because most people know how to lip synch, and music videos [[Milli Vanilli|almost always]] are the voices of the artist.
