Defined: This is any film you use in a film production that you did not create. You can only use footage that is in the public domain or is allowed to be used via a Creative Commons license.

Some footage has to be purchased or possibly licensed. What that means is YOU the filmmaker have to obtain permission, and I will gladly help you do that.
