For this project I used Creative Commons to find and share four media types; Image Sample, Audio Sample, Animation Sample, and Video Sample.
This is an image sample that I found on Desktop Nexus. I found this image by searching "forests" on google and then using the tool action to sort by usage rights to get only Creative Commons images.
I downloaded this file to my computer and then uploaded it to my website.
I could not find the license information so I will follow the TASL rule. TASL stands for Title, Author, Source, and License.
Title: Sunbeams in Forest

License: Unknown - FairUse
I selected the audio sample german radio audio file from freesound.org.

This is an animated GIF I found on DeviantArt.
An animated GIF is a sequence of many screenshots or images. They are encoded in graphis interchange format (GIF), which consolidates them all to a single file with its own graphic control extension.

This is an example of an embedded video
This video is about how better self awareness in regards to actual skill is important. The speaker uses the Dunning-Kruger effect to show how most people who have little skill often overestimate their skills the most.

This project gave me valuable insight into different types of media, how to share them, and the rules about licensing. I did not know that there were so many different licenses under the Creative Commons name.
