The author of a work is responsible for its creation. Normally, the author is the person who actually
creates the authorship being claimed. The only exception occurs when authorship is created as a work
made for hire. In this case, the employer is considered the author, not the employee who created the
authorship. (See below for information on works made for hire). The copyright in the work of
authorship immediately becomes the property of the author.
Work made for hire: A work made for hire is either a work created by an employee as part of
his/her regular duties. A person is an employee if the hiring party has the right to control the
manner and means by which the work is created. Courts have considered certain factors in the
employment relationship, such as whether taxes are withheld or benefits given, to determine
whether the contributor is an “employee” under this sense of the definition. See Circular 9.
Or:
A specially commissioned work for certain categories of works and only if there is a written
agreement between the employer and employee stating that the work is made for hire. Specially
commissioned works must fall into one of the following categories:
Contribution to a collective work
Part of a motion picture or other audiovisualwork
Translation
Supplementary work
Compilation
Instructionaltext
Test or answer material for a test
Atlas
If a work is made for hire, the employer is the author. See “statutory definition” below.
Statutory definition
A work made for hire is defined as: A work prepared by an employee within the scope of his or
her employment, or: A work specially ordered or commissioned for use as a contribution to a
collective work, as a part of a motion picture or other audiovisual work, as a translation, as a
supplementary work, as a compilation, as an instructional text, as a test, as answer material for a
test, or as an atlas, if the parties expressly agree in a written instrument signed by them that the
work shall be considered a work made for hire. A supplementary work is defined as a work
prepared for publication as a secondary adjunct to a work by another author for the purpose of
introducing, concluding, illustrating, explaining, revising, commenting upon, or assisting in the
use of the other work, such as forewords, afterwords, pictorial illustrations, maps, charts, tables,
editorial notes, musical arrangements, answer material for tests, bibliographies, appendices and
indexes.

DoingBusinessAs
If the author is doing business under another name and as long as the two names represent one
and the same entity (such as an unincorporated organization), give this information in a “Note to
Copyright Office” on the Certification screen. The relationship may also be expressed as “trading
as,” “sole owner of,” “also known as,” and “acceptable alternative designation.” Note: Do not refer
to a relationship between an individual and a corporation or partnership; such organizations are
separate legal entities from individuals associated with them. Thus, “John Smith doing business
as XYZ Corporation” is not an acceptable entry.
Examples:
John Smith (author) doing business as Smith Publishing Company.
Sue Jones (author) trading as Jones Productions.
Dates of Author'sBirth and Death
The author's Year of Birth is optional but is useful as a form of identification. Note that, if given,
this information will appear in the public record. Leave this space blank if the author is an
organization.
If the author is deceased, the copyright law requires that the Year of Death be included in the
application (unless the work is anonymous or pseudonymous and the author is not named on the
application).
Author's Citizenship or Domicile: Give the country of which the author is a citizen and or the
country in which the author is domiciled. A domicile is the place where an individual has his/her
permanent home. For the citizenship of a corporate author, you may give the country under the
laws of which it was incorporated. For the domicile of an organizational author, you may give the
country of the principal place of business.
AnonymousWork
An author's contribution to a work is “anonymous” if that author is not identified on the copies or
phonorecords of the work. If the contribution is anonymous, you may:
reveal the author's identity even though the work is anonymous, or
leave the author fields blank, or
give “Anonymous” in the last name field.
Note that if a work is “made for hire,” you must name the employer as author. In any case, you should
check the anonymous box.
PseudonymousWork
An author's contribution to a work is “pseudonymous” if that author is identified on the copies or
phonorecords only under a fictitious name. If the contribution is pseudonymous, you may:
reveal the author's identity even though the work is pseudonymous, or
leave the author fields blank.

3. September25,2012
In either case, you should check the pseudonymous box and give the pseudonym in the space provided.
(Note: If your work is a work make for hire, it is not necessary to check the pseudonymous box).
Author Created
Check the appropriate boxes to indicate this author's contribution to the work. The choices that appear
correspond to the type of work you identified at the beginning. If you need to be more specific, use the
space under “other.”
Literary Authorship
Text may include non-dramatic literary works such as books, periodicals, manuscripts, stories
and poetry. (Note: titles, names, short phrases, and slogans are generally not protected by
copyright.).
Editing consists of adding, revising, and/or deleting preexisting text.
Photograph(s) includes photographic illustrations, prints, and slides.
Artwork may include works such as two- or three-dimensional artwork, illustrative matter such
as drawings, technical drawings, or other non-photographic pictorial representations.
Compilation is a work formed by the collection and assembling of preexisting materials or of data
that are selected, coordinated or arranged in such a way that the resulting work as a whole
constitutes an original work of authorship. To be copyrightable, a compilation must contain at
least a certain amount of original selection and/or ordering. For example, the selection of only 3
poems from different authors would not constitute a copyrightable compilation.
Computer Program refers to computer code, that is, a set of statements or instructions to be used
in a computer in order to bring about a certain result.
Other may be used to briefly state (in general terms) authorship that is not covered by the boxes

information in linear form, such as architectural blueprints or mechanical drawings.
Other may be used to briefly state (in general terms) authorship that is not covered by the boxes
provided and for which you seek this registration.
PerformingArtsAuthorship
Music refers to the melody, rhythm and harmony of a musical composition.
Lyrics refer to the words of a song or other musical composition.
Text (scripts/screenplays/others).
Scripts/screenplays are plays prepared for stage presentation, as well as those prepared for
cinema, radio and television.

Treatment is a written description of a film, often an intermediate stage between the script idea
and the shooting script.
Editing generally consists of markings for the performance of music, such as additional or altered
fingering, accents, dynamics and the like. Editorial text can also be considered editing.
Musical Arrangement is a work that results from the addition of new (or revised) harmony to a
preexisting work (either a melody or an existing song).
Other may be used to briefly state (in general terms) authorship that is not covered by the boxes
provided and for which you seek this registration.
Sound RecordingsAuthorship
Sound recording is a series of musical or other sounds (for example, spoken words) fixed in some
medium. A sound recording consists of the contributions of the performer(s) and/or the
producer(s)/sound engineer(s). The performance and production form an integrated whole, i.e.
a sound recording, and are subject to a single registration. A sound recording is separate and
distinct from the underlying work being recorded. For example, a song (words and music) is a
separate work from the recording of that song.
Note that the sounds accompanying a motion picture or other audio visual work are specifically excluded
from the statutory definition of “sound recording.”
Statutory definition
“Sound recordings” are works that result from the fixation of a series of musical, spoken, or other
sounds, but not including the sounds accompanying a motion picture or other audiovisual work,
regardless of the nature of the material objects, such as disks, tapes, or other phonorecords, in
which they are embodied.

5. September25,2012
Performance refers to sound recording authorship fixed by a human performer. The
performance of a musical work consists of the particular vocal and/or instrumental recorded
rendition of that work. The performance of a literary or theatrical work consists of the recorded
reading or narration.
Production usually refers to the studio engineering, editing, mixing, mastering, processing, etc., to
produce the finished recording. Do NOT check this box to refer to the creation of a musical
composition (see the definition of “music” below).
Lyrics refer to the words of a song or other musical composition.
Music refers to the melody, rhythm and harmony of a musical composition. It is important to
note the difference between music (that is, the musical lines in a musical composition) and a
sound recording (that is, the actual sounds of the musical work fixed in recorded form, for
example, on a CD or digitally in an mp3 file).
Other may be used to briefly describe authorship that is not covered by the boxes provided and for which
you seek this registration.
Motion Pictures Authorship
Entire motion picture may include direction, production, editing, music, script and cinematography. Most
commercial motion pictures are registered as works made for hire and the employer is considered the
author of all of these elements.
Production: The Producer plays a critical role in the creation of a motion picture. When a motion
picture is “made for hire,” a company is usually the producer and handles both the creative and
business details of making the motion picture overall. An individual person who functions as the
producer usually plans, organizes and controls the various stages in the production. The
producer often handles various business aspects of the production as well. To be considered an
author of a motion picture, an individual producer must make a direct, creative contribution to
the work. An individual producer who manages only the business aspects of a film project
(sometimes referred to as the “executive producer”) is not considered an author.
Direction: The Director is the principal author of a motion picture. S/he translates the script to
film and also is involved in every stage of production. S/he may supervise hundreds of people,
from screenwriters to costume and set designers. The director is in charge of all technical and
artistic aspects of the film or television show. S/he conducts auditions and rehearsals and
approves the location, scenery, costumes, choreography, and music. In short, s/he directs the
entire cast and crew during shooting.
Script/Screenplay is the written text used in the production/performance of the motion picture
or television show.
Cinematography: The Cinematographer composes the film shots to reflect the mood the director
wishes to create. S/he may operate the camera or may work with other camera operators to
capture the script's scenes on film.
Editing: The Editor studies footage, selects the best shots, and assembles them by splicing and
replacing into sequences to achieve continuity and desired dramatic, comedic and thematic
effects. The goal is to create dramatic continuity and the right pace for the desired mood.

6. September25,2012
Other may be used to briefly state (in general terms) authorship that is not covered by the boxes
provided and for which you seek this registration, such as “choreography.” If your claim is in audiovisual
material, such as in a videogame, website or internet advertisement, state “audiovisual material.” If the
claim is in a computer program, state “computer program” and send the required source code deposit, as
explained in Circular 61. This is usually the first 25 and last 25 pages of source code. Note that you may
combine terms, for example, “audiovisual material and computer program.”
Single Serial Issue Authorship
Author's Name:
The author named on the application should be the person or organization responsible for the
compilation of the serial issue and any individual contributions which were authored by the
person or organization listed. If the contributions and/or compilation were works made for hire,
the employer is considered the legal author of that compilation and/or those contributions that
were prepared as works made for hire. In such a case, you should not list the individual
employee for hire as an “author.”
For contributions that were not authored by the individual or organization listed, you may list
each individual contributor separately as an author, give the title of each contribution in the
“other” field on the author created screen and check the appropriate transfer statement on the
claimant screen (e.g., By written agreement(s) with author(s) named on the
application/certificate) OR do not list the individual contributors and check the appropriate
transfer statement on the claimant screen (e.g., By written agreement(s) with individual
contributors not named on the application/certificate).
Author Created
The new author created options are:
Compilation: You may check this box if the work consists of a copyrightable compilation. A
“compilation” is a work formed by the collection and assembling of preexisting materials or of
data that are selected, coordinated, or arranged in such a way that the resulting work as a whole
constitutes an original work of authorship. A publisher of a periodical will typically be the author
of the compilation.
Contribution(s) to a Collective Work: You may check this box if the author listed is the author of
contributions to a collective work (either as actual author or employer in the contributions in
works made for hire). If there are contributions that were not authored by the individual or
organization listed, you may listeach individual contributor separately as an author, give the
title(s) of their contribution(s) in the “other” field on the author created screen and check the
appropriate transfer statement on the claimant screen (e.g. By written agreement(s) with
author(s) named on the application/certificate) OR do not list the individual contributors and
check the appropriate transfer statement on the claimant screen (e.g. By written agreement(s)
with individual contributors not named on the application/certificate).
Other: A more specific statement is not generally necessary but may be given in the “Other” box. If you
are listing the author of one or more individual contributions, give the title(s) of the contribution(s).
