Free Animation Sites

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 come across a web site that claims to have royalty free animation files for download, then you may want to check into it further. It is very tempting when surfing the web to see something that you like and just automatically download it or right-click and "save as." Or you may see something interesting and decide to post it on your site or blog. However, don't ignore the part about linking any of the free computer animations back to them, to give them credit.

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.

Not everyone has the creative ability to design their website to look like they imagine it and at times will "borrow" 3D animations, gif animations along with other graphics or images they see on the internet. The legal issue of free animation and graphics has been around since the first public sites started appearing around 1993. One individual may have obtained permission to use the works from the owner and put it on their site; however, if someone sees it on their site they cannot just use it, as they have to obtain permission from the original owner as well.
