So I'm Kate Hatton and I am enrolled in Charles Darwin, this particular class being New Media Intermediate Studio or NMD201.
As a part of the class outline I will be required to create a remix mash up video using Final Cut Pro, gathering my sources from creative commons.
In the first class last week it was our first task to find a creative commons video. The best creative commons video to use is CC BY which means I can basically use it for anything (do anything to it and even use it comercially) as long as I credit the original video and its creators.
Through a bit of google searching I found a website www.sintel.org which is dedicated to a 15 minute shirt film of the same name. This movie (and a few others I've found under the same organization which I will list further down) was created specifically to be licenced under the creative commons 3.0 so it can be reused, remixed etc.
http://www.blender.org/features-gallery/blender-open-projects/ has the movies that have been created under Creative Commons. This is a quote from the website "Blender Foundation has organized four projects to validate and improve the 3D open source content creation pipeline with Blender. For each project the best artists of the Blender community were invited to come to Amsterdam to work 7-12 months in a well equipped studio on a professional and exciting target. The results and all artwork created for making it, were released under the Creative Commons."
