SWEARING American Networks and DVD release
Dear American Post Brethren
Do your networks generally accept swearing in a music documentary? The mix is being sold to multiple clients and going to DVD release too and my client is very vague (what's new?). It's a Eminem (not M&M) doc in 5.1 and some of his songs have "rude bits" in them (gosh - surely not?) I m leaning to providing a "polite" mix and a "reality" mix (as we would usually provide to UK clients), but was curious as to what you guys over the pond usually accept taste wise (given that you chaps made this stuff in the first place to sell to your kids.... ) cheers

Re: SWEARING American Networks and DVD release
@Mikerophonics; It all depends on the network and the time of day of air (late night vrs Family hour), etc. It also seems to be a moving target. I am often surprised at what we can and can not get away with. So best thing is to get specs from the network.
@kdarbyshirebryant; The above also applies to the use of the word 'God'. Do be aware that here in the States that word is also often used as a weapon! Good Luck and Happy Bleeping Ted |

Re: SWEARING American Networks and DVD release
Client is playing dangerous and not bleeping "f you" in the middle of one of the songs... Against my advice of proving two mixes and wants it as per his edit.
I have pointed out the pitfalls, and offered to cover all bases, but this has been declined. Ho hum..... Cheers

Oh Well!
Networks can and will bleep out whatever they deem needs bleeping. Those 'bleeping' bleeps! |
