Should museums play music - in public spaces and or in galleries? Pros for music: Music helps designers frame the atmosphere for the intended experience at the museum. You can pick music that helps people get into a reflective, active, or social mood--whatever you are trying to achieve. Repetitive music annoys staff.

That being said, making a video isn’t as simple as it sounds (and it doesn’t even sound that simple to most). If you don’t pay attention to getting good sound quality your video will always look unprofessional, even if the visuals are great.

Most people love a good tune, but auto-loaded music can be a real nuisance as well as steal a lot of bandwidth and make your page load and respond slower. And besides that, many people keep their speakers on all the time, and having music blare the moment they land on your site can be incredibly jarring.

The next technique that I am exploring in my screencasting/videocasting skill set is the addition of music. I've resisted adding music for three stupid reasons: 1. My (incorrect) perception that non-copyrighted music is crap. Finding Good Quality Music Sources Isn't Impossible. Trade Off: What value does music add?

I noticed that in your videos, music helps progress the storytelling. How do you think about sound when you’re creating a video? Sound inspires me. I’ll be inspired by something visual and then I find the music for it. A lot of the musical elements I include have tried to inform real-life elements.
