We asked permission from Polly Paulusma by email to ask whether we could use her song. Due to them being family friends, Tom also conversed with her but to make things more official she suggested we emailed her on Sunday 5th December:
Dear Polly,
I am writing on behalf of myself, Rachel Procter, and Tom Bowers; we are A2 Media Studies students at Saffron Walden County High School Sixth Form. For our A2 media task we have to create a music video and ancillary tasks which consist of a digipak and a magazine advert. Our work will be assessed by the OCR exam board.
We would love to use your song 'Back to the Start' as we feel the song has the potential for us to produce a creative, quality music video gaining the maximum possible marks.
On copyright grounds we need to ask your permission to use the song. We will not be producing this video for profit or any other commercial purposes. We will be posting it on our coursework blog at www.blogger.com and we shall show you the finished product to assure you it is only for coursework purposes.
If you could reply on this email address as to whether we have permission, we would both really appreciate it.
Thank you for your time.
Yours sincerely
Rachel Procter and Tom Bowers.
Polly referred us to One Little Indian records who replied:
Tom and Rachel,
I work for Polly Paulusma at One Little Indian Records.
Polly has written to me and expressed her wish for you to be able to use her work as part of your media studies course.
I am writing to confirm that Polly and One Little Indian Records are very happy to grant you all the permissions necessary to use Polly's song 'Back To The Start' in your media studies course as outlined in your e-mail below.
Thanks
Derek
