This guide can help you find video, audio, and images that you can freely use in your research. If you are creating the next blockbuster video or the hottest meme, these pages also will be useful. 

We also point out some issues that you have to consider when using multimedia:

  • Compatibility

    • The file format you want to use to publish your content, can be reproduced in all major browsers?

    • Use a format that has a bright future: open-sourced, supported by major browsers and industry.

  • Licenses

    • Most popular: Creative Commons

    • Differences in use: can I use it commercially? Should I credit the creator? Can I modify it?

    • Especially for music: Check if you can use it in a video (modification).
