I found on the OCR webiste it states that:
"What is the Rule on Soundtracks?
All material should be original, EXCEPT at AS level copyright-free music may be used. At A2, for MUSIC VIDEO a copyright track may be used but there should be evidence in research and planning of candidates seeking permission to use it. All candidates are strongly encouraged to explore the variety of possibilities of sound design and not just to use music!
Are candidates allowed to use images created by others, such as images of rock stars for magazines ?
NO. All material should be created by the candidates themselves."
Copyright is a legal concept, it helps the creator of an original work piece have exclusive rights to it.
Copyright can be seen as both good and bad, the negative side is it will take more time and effort to create these sounds rather than finding a clip out of a wide variety online.
I should only use a work that's been protected by copyright with the copyright owner's permission.
However, Copyright does not protect ideas for a work. It is only when the work itself is fixed, for example in writing, that copyright automatically protects it. This means that you do not have to apply for copyright.
