Research: creative commons

Creative commons

What is creative commons?
Creative Commons develops, supports, and stewards legal and technical
infrastructure that maximizes digital creativity, sharing, and
innovation. Creative commons allows us to use royalty-free music, meaning
that we can use music that we have been granted permission to and
without there being any copyright infragments. 

Why is creative commons useful?
Creative commons is useful because it helps minimise the risk of being charged or having to pay for music belonging to someone else. It's also easy and simply to use, as the video on how to use creative commons shows.



Sites similar to creative commons
Some sites that are similar to/like creative commons that provide royalty free music are:
 http://www.123rf.com/?src=googtrackad12&gclid=CMiE6Y6CpLwCFa-WtAod_1IAzg

This site is called 123rf.com and not only provides royalty free music, but royalty free photos incase we wanted to use a picture of someone and royalty free footage. This site is really useful as it has many royalty free footage and resources that we could incorporate into our opening sequence.
