More About Free Creative Libraries
By checking the Free Footage section of our site you will find a large list of free video sites. Sites offering free footage and free video clips may not be equal. The differences are not about the quality of footage. The main difference is about how these sites license the free video to you. Some sites are more permissive with their video licensing than the others.
In the Free Music section of our site you will find a list of free music sites. You can use their free music tracks in your projects. You might need to check their music licensing if you want to use the music in commercial projects. Usually, free music can be used in the majority of online projects. If you plan to use the free music in commercial projects, films, theatrical performances, you may need an enhanced or premium music license. That type of license may come with a fee.
When you search for free images, vectors, illustrations, you may find a lot of free image libraries and stock sites. We have several free sites in the list above. Such sites have massive collections of free visuals that individual contributors upload. Usually, you can use such free visuals as you see fit. The free image sites may request to have a credit or backlink to the original image’s page.
