Is Elliott Smith's music public domain because he has died Or who would you have to get the right to use his music in a film?
No its not public domain, and yes you would have to get permission from the copyright holders. Generally an artists recording contract transfers the copyrights to the record label, for which the record label monetarily compensates the artist. As such, long after the artist has died, the record label still owns the rights to those creations. Elliott Smith recorded under several different labels during his career, and in order to use his music in a film, you would need permission from whatever label owns the rights to the particular piece you wish to use.

You have some songs on paper They have been composed and performed but the music is not written How do you rigister a copyright Do you need to write the music before applying for copyrite?
First, you do not need to apply for a copyright unless you plan to enforce it; your songs were copyrighted automatically the moment they were written on paper. The "music", if any, would have its own copyright once it is composed and recorded, whether it is put onto paper or not. In fact, each new sound recording of a new performance of the music is a slightly different "creation" and would have its own "sound recording" copyright, which is owned by the performers or producer.

To obtain permission to use part of ABBA songs, you would need to contact the copyright holders of their music. This is typically the music publisher or the record label.

What are the role and responsibilities of a copyright manager?
Although the specific responsibilities of a copyright manager vary based on the type of organization, he or she will generally be responsible for ensuring that the organization's works are protected, and that others' works used by the organization are properly licensed. For example, a copyright manager at a record label would be concerned with protecting the company's masters, while properly licencing covers of music not controlled by that company.

No. I believe this would fall under the right "To prepare derivative works based upon the work." Which is reserved and protected. However, this needs to be looked at by a copyright lawyer for a definitive answer.
