using footage from other films/gettyimages (1 Viewer)

Hey guys, I'm doing film for the 2008 HSC - just a question about using footage/clips from other films/stock video: is that a plagiarism/originality issue if i acknowledge it at the end of the film/reflection statement? Also, same question, for songs?

Thanks guys, and sorry if it's a stupid question, but I couldn't find it in the syllabus

Its fine, just acknowledge what you use in your credits at the end of the film

Songs are fine, but they are strongly discouraging using other bits of films/getty images. Its up to you, but just make sure you credit it.
