Free Animation Photography Shack Guide
Free Animation With Credit On Website
By Nikos L Maxwell
The most common method of presenting animation, which
is the rapid display of a sequence of images to create
an illusion of movement, is in a video game or as a
motion picture. If you enter the search term "free
animation" on the internet, then you are likely
to get back thousands of results, whereas a few years
ago, you would have been lucky to get any.
Do free animations mean that no one gets credited with
the work or that the person and/or company that developed
it have agreed to basically give it away? Works granted
as a copyright after January 1, 1978 are protected for
the lifetime of the author or creator and for a period
of 50 years after his or her death. What about these
gif animations, cartoon animations, 2D animations and
3D animations that are found on the internet? Are they
really free?
If you are like most people when you are surfing the
web and you see something interesting, perhaps an animation
that you would like to save or put on your own site,
then you most likely just download it or right click
and "save as."
Flash Generated Computer Animations
That might work for static images, but you can’t right
click and save Flash generated computer animations;
they can’t just be "taken." The sites that
offer free animation Flash files will allow you to download
but request that you link back to them or give them
credit for whatever you use.
As soon as you write a story, draw a character, create
any type of graphics computer animation, save a document
using Word or record a song, you own copyright to it
and are protected by law. What about computer animations
or any other type of work that you have created for
an employer or client?
In that particular case, it is known as work for hire
and at times you can claim the right to include the
works for display in your portfolio, although you should
check to see if they would have any specific objections
to allowing that.
Make Your Website Stand Out With Graphic Animations
Everyone wants their website to stand out so that it
attracts visitors, resulting, hopefully, in sales. Many
times, if an individual is lacking the skills to create
something new and original, then they will use what
they assume is free animation from another web site.
This type of legal issue has been around since the
first public sites starting appearing. The creators
of these graphics and cool animations own them and their
permission to use them on your site is needed. Even
if someone sees it on your site they will still need
permission from the owner before posting it on their
own site.
