Well, clearly the best music is written to/for the scene. Similarly any music that happens to match can't/wont be 'found' until the film is in a rough edit phase.

Alternatively it's 'accidental' music; i.e. a radio/hi-fi/TV source within the scene, which can be found before or after shooting.

I don't wish to be rude (and forgive me if I'm wide of the mark) but, I suspect the film won't be of a professional standard (lighting, sound, etc.) is 'perfect' music essential? Would a more 'home-grown' piece be more suitable, even compliment the film rather than, potentially, be out of place? I'm thinking early John Carpenter here, he wrote all the music for his early horrors, just moody synth stuff, hardly Williams or Goldsmith.

Someone with a reasonable PC could use, say, a classical piece (blag a MIDI file - not strictly kosher, I know), run it through an app and take it from there - the tempo can easily be adjusted to suit the final editing style.

Out of innerest, what do they consider to be 'something suitable'?
