COPYRIGHT FREE

1) Task:

Our task during the lesson was to find music from the website called 'creative commons' which would be suitable for the short clip provided from a teen movie called 'Submarine'.

We learnt that it is important that we use sound that is copyright free because of the consequences such as breaking the law.

We firstly opened up final cut pro to import the provided clip...

2) The concept behind creative commons

Step by step guide on how to use creative commons and download the sound you want LEGALLY!


         This is the first page you will see when you're on the Creative Commons website.

On the same page, you will see various boxes and the one you need is the EXPLORE box and click the 'Find CC-licensed works'. 
You will then be taken to this page shown above. You have a range of independent organisations that help you download music, images, vidoes etc which is indicated under each organisation name e.g. Soundcloud for music, Pixabay for images. 
You then click on which one you want to use to search for your music and it will be highlighted for you so you know which one you have chosen and then you type what sort of music or artist you want at the search bar. 
In this case, we have chosen Soundcloud which in our opinion is the quickest and easiest search engine. We randomly typed in 'Chilled' and then came up a range of sounds associated with the keyword Chilled.


To download the sound is very simple, there is a 'download' button at the bottom of each sound and once you've clicked that, your sound will automatically download and be saved in your 'downloads'.
