Audio Sample

This is the official credit to the creator with the appropiate link

"Thunder" by MrAuralization is licensed under CC BY 3.0 DEED

The example I decided is named "Thunder". I decided to pick this sample for because I like listening to rain sounds. I find it very comforting and peaceful. I downloaded this file as a WAV File, after that I uploaded it to my Google Drive to be able to add it to my site.

GIF Sample

I found this GIF sample on DeviantArt. I downloaded it as a GIF file in order to upload it to my website. I had no luck finding licensing information or sharing limitations.

Title: Emote Holiday Presents

Video Sample

The video I am using as my sample is an example of an embedded video. The creator of this video is known for talking about self-love and self-worth. In this video, she talks about why we need to stop doubting ourselves and why we should think higher about us.

I could not find any usage policy or licensing information.

Lesson Learned

I enjoyed working on this assignment because all the samples I choose were related to my interests. I learned more about the importance of giving the correct credits to an author when using their content. Creative Commons was very informative because it explained what each license gave us the right to in simple words.
