I want to add music to a video I made for a class. What do I need to do?
Answer
Follow these steps:
- Look for licensed music that will work for your video. The Creative Commons' Legal Music for Videos guide is a good place to start.
- If you cannot find licensed music,do a fair use analysis. Remember that your analysis will be impacted by the purpose of the video and the nature and amount of music. If you determine that your use is fair, add the music to your video.
- If you determine that your use is not fair, request permission from the copyright owner to add the music to your video.
