Digital Media Exploration

Description

For this project, I found samples of 4 different types of digital media, and I credited them.

Image - JPG

So I found an image of a forest on Openverse, and I downloaded the small size version from Flickr.

Audio Sample - wav

This is a sample audio file called Transformer Sound, and I picked it because I like Transformers, especially the part where they transform into robots.

Animation Sample - Animated Gif

This is an animated gif of an anchor falling, and I found it on Giphy.

I couldn't find much licensing information or sharing limitations, but Giphy's Proprietary Rights exist. It states:

Video Sample - Youtube

This video is a Jonah Hill interview on The Breakfast Club Power 105.1 FM.

I embedded this video from youtube, and I couldn't find any licensing information or usage policy.

Lessons Learned

I have learned a lot about the different types of licensing from Creative Commons and the file types of media. The sharing limitations were also interesting, and it's good to know about them.
