Melitsa from play-activities.com asked “Can you talk about using music in vlogs?” I’m seeing more vlogs that use a theme tune or little tune between the opening credits and the start of the vlog. What are your thoughts about doing that? And how do you do it? Thanks!
It is not legal to use any copyrighted music without permission. Putting a credit at the end of your video does not make it legal. Playing the song yourself does not make it legal if the written music is copyrighted. You have to have permission, use your own creation, or use royalty free music. Here are some sites where you can download royalty free music for free.
- Incompetech – the best I’ve found!
- Partners in Rhyme
- Internet Tip from Seabreeze Computers – an awesome list of more sites
