Third party audio
Even during videos with no narration, the inclusion of background music can enhance the user experience. Watching videos with no background noise can feel unnatural, so the inclusion of background music can be very important to keep the viewer's attention.
Free music
As with the inclusion of any external media, there are copyright restrictions on what can be used but a number of sources of usable audio are available. Below is a list of three sites that provide free music. Make sure you read the copyright restrictions and attribution information before use.
All efforts have been made to ensure materials created by the EDU comply with current accessibility guidelines (JISC: Support for learners with disabilities).
