When creating content often times it’s helpful to use photos and videos. However, many of the quality photos online are copyrighted – i.e. it’s illegal for you to use them without permission!
In order to avoid legal trouble, check out these resources for open-domain photos you can use for all of your creative projects.
- Flickr: great community-sourced photos, search by name, photographer, or subject
- Creative Commons: search by domain laws or subject
- Library of Congress: great for archival photos and videos
- Adobe Stock: available to Comm students through Adobe suite, good for basic photos
