Editor's Notes
- Welcome everyone and thank you for taking time out of your busy day to sit here with me today and talk about using other people’s work with less risk of being liable. Let us begin.
- Our job is to build our community by successfully communicating the correct idea to the public. We are to continually bring in new and fresh opportunities and ideas so that we have plenty to offer and express a welcome to a large divers group of individuals. We also need to be knowledgeable and keep up with the trends of cultural norms. So, being involved with media, news, reports, statistics, music and social media can place one in a vulnerable position to copy or take too much of someone else’s ideas. The best way to keep yourself out of liabilities' way is to at least have a good idea about copyrights and fair use.
- Don’t forget that you will have new ideas that you will create and even you could copyright your work. Think about what your reaction would be if you saw a portion your work being displayed by someone else in the marketing world and either making money off of it or used it in the wrong context. How would that make you feel?
- At first, it is hard to familiarize yourself with copyrights, using the work of others, and creative commons. I have provided you with these websites to help you get familiar. If you save these to you favorites on your browser toolbar you can reference them quickly and after a while they will become familiar.
- When researching, one should assume that almost everything has copyrights. There are some materials that are not copyrighted like public domain, but we will visit that subject a bit later. Here is a nice list to consider what may be copyrighted and that would mean we need to make sure we are citing, or building off of an idea in a way that promotes creativity or benefits the public.
- Isn't it amazing to think that products of the mind are to be protected? I found it silly at first, but after looking at it closely it is actually quite important. After all, everything begins with a thought before it reaches the form of a song, document, media, book and so on.
- There are different kinds of copyrights, if you will, depending of the material or content that is being protected.
- The picture on the left should look familiar and the trademarks on the rights should be even more recognizable.
- I found trade secrets very fascinating because without this right, nothing within the market could hold its value to be unique. Then we encounter patents, to me, they are the upmost kind of intellectual property, wouldn’t you say?
- Have you ever had a knock-off of Coca-Cola and it just did not fulfill your craving? Well, that is why sometimes it is worth paying a little extra for that trade secret.
- Absolutely!
- Fair use is awesome because as long as one uses an authors work as a “contribution to society by continuing the public discourse or creating a new work in the process, fair use may protect you”.
- If you answered yes to all questions, then you will remain protected under the Fair Use Law because you have passed the Fair Use Factors. Great job! If you honestly answered no to at least one, then you may want to reconsider how you are using new material.
- Just a few more to keep in mind. Your doing great and you’ve learned so much.
- The public domain is awesome, here is why…one does not need permission from the copyrights owner after the copyright has expired and fallen into the “public domain”.
- Creative commons is a branch off of copyright. There are different ways to show how your own work can be protected and remember that means that there are a few ways to find how a work is protected. Text, commons deed and software.
- Now that your have learned about copyrights and things of that nature, don’t be afraid of being creative! I recommend that as long as you keep yourself informed you can create wonderful things for this recreation center. Think outside the box. Our goal is to communicate good things out into the community so that people have a chance to act out in good nature.
- Keep this in mind, we want wo promote righteousness. Your good intensions with your work will spread God’s kingdom on this earth and yes, through his Recreation Center.
- Make sure to double check if you are liable, remember we have large populous and either your work or your infringement will be recognized. Thank you so much for your time, I hope this presentation was helpful to you. I will be over by the cookies and drinks to answer any of your questions.
