The people and tools behind a Videmory film

Videmory uses licensed music, place-name data, typefaces and open-source software. This page acknowledges the people and projects that make those parts possible.

Last updated 15 September 2026.

Music

The soundtrack comes from the Free Music Archive. Videmory keeps a catalogue of more than a hundred tracks by nearly fifty artists, every one listened to and chosen by a person, and every one released under a Creative Commons Attribution licence — CC BY 4.0 for most of them, CC BY 3.0 for the rest.

You pick a mood, not a track. The film takes it from there, and it will not hand you the same piece of music twice in a row if you build again.

Whichever track ends up in your film is named on the closing card, like this:

Music by
Axletree
“The Silent Grove” · CC BY 4.0

That credit is the whole deal. These artists let anyone use their work, including commercially, on the one condition that they are named for it — so the credit stays in the film. The card names the artist, the track and the licence, and points here for the rest: nobody can click a line of video, and the address a track actually lives at can run to a hundred characters. Type the artist or the title from your card below and the full credit comes back, addresses and all. What the licence does not allow is lifting the music out of the film and passing it around on its own.

Putting your film on YouTube? Look your track up below and paste its full credit into the description, link and all. It costs nothing and it is the point of the licence.

The archive itself: freemusicarchive.org.

Three letters is enough. The full credit comes back with its links.

Place names

Place names are drawn from the GeoNames geographical database, used under a Creative Commons Attribution licence.

Videmory uses a local copy of the data when turning location information into place names. It does not need to send a photograph’s coordinates to an online mapping service during the render.

Typefaces

Text drawn into Videmory films uses Roboto, designed by Christian Robertson and used under the Apache License 2.0.

The Videmory app and website use Bricolage Grotesque, designed by Mathieu Triay and used under the SIL Open Font License.

Open-source software

Videmory is built using open-source software, including:

  • FFmpeg for decoding, editing and encoding the films
  • Flutter and Dart for the app
  • Node.js for server-side processing
  • Firebase and Google Cloud libraries for storage, data and delivery
  • exifr for reading camera metadata

Each project remains the property of its contributors and is used under its own licence.

Your work

The photos and videos you upload remain yours. Videmory receives only the permission needed to store and process them to make the film you requested.
