Reflection on Creative Commons and Audactiy


Audacity was a very easy program to download and learn to use.  When Audacity was loaded onto my computer I was a bit overwhelmed.  I was able to Google YouTube videos that gave me step by step directions on how to use Audacity.  Last week when I was working on my assignment I was very frustrated with the background noise as well as how different parts of my speech were different volumes.  After working with Audacity for a while I realized that if I would have used it for my narration I would not have been so irritated. 

The Creative Commons License was very confusing and I have yet to decide which license I will choose.  It does not bother me to have others use my work but I have been making videos with pictures of families and friends.  Out of the six licenses I think that I am leaning towards Attribution-Non Commercial-Share Alike License.  Creativecommons.org explains that with this license others must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made, they may not use the material for commercial purposes, and if they remix, transform, or build upon the material, they must distribute your contributions under the same license as the original.
