For years, we’ve helped clients find free video clips and music clips for all of their advertising, marketing, and web design needs. And while these are the resources we trust, we’re sure there are even more. What we want to stress the most is make sure that you are using truly free (royalty free) images, videos, and/or audio if you want to stay away from licensing issues. If you want to go through a paid service, make sure it has a good reputation and a strong following. Also, make sure you keep a copy of all your receipts in the event you get hit with a licensing complaint in the future.
