First three lines and medley 1982

Ok so, I want to use a portion of the emergency broadcast and siren from The Purge as an intro track for my band when we play live but only for our live shows not album. Would that be able to be considered fair use?

How about portions of maps?

so It's okay If I ask the for permission from the record label and the creator?

clear language. thank you

Thank you. Is taking one-minute of a movie, and teach students some words to earn money? Is it a copyright violation?

Is it okay to use pdf of someone to make a video?

You mentioned students copying stuff for a school assignment. You might want to explain the point at which it goes from fair use to plagiarism.

Excellent useful discussion in short.

I didn't know Anthony Hopkins knew so much about copyright law.

How does copy rights affect FM Radio DJ/Broadcasters? Does the station need to apply for some sort of licence to play artist music?

This video answered lot of my questions. Thank you sir.
Subscribing 😎👍

Explaing movies is a copyright or not

If you use a book for teaching and people buy the book doesn’t it help the author/publisher?

Hello can anyone help me here in this im really confused.

i want to make a video showing other company products and logos however I will NOT CHANGE their art work for any reason what so ever, additionally it would be only for educational purposes, furthermore I will state that I intend no harm in infringing the work of the artists.

Thing is i would be showing around 50 pictures of other products for EDUCATIONAL purposes ONLY. NO CHANGING CONTENT NO NOTHING. I would definitely give a good review of their products and will promote it appropriately.

I need a certain answer with fast and honest reply. Hopefully it would be positive.

EXAMPLE: Amazon (with logo) is an online retailer that sells products etc.... I personally think they have a good service. etc....

Hi glad to be here ...I have questions ? how about if I do video about the top 10 songs all the time and explain why in each one and play 10-30 second of every one as my choice top 10 .do I have to get copyright thanks

Awesome man.

I'd like to use in-game screenshots(without permission) for my videos and it's all about promoting the game where i took the screenshots from, is that under fair use or no?

Very logical & well done.

Can I create a course to teach English using a tv series ? It would be transformative but I would use most of it

There’s a poem that’s been passed down orally in my family for four generations. My great grandfather picked it up from someone, we don’t know the person’s name. I’ve never seen it written anywhere, but I’ve memorized it. I’m an author and I’m working on a historical fiction about my dad’s life. I’d love to be able to include the poem and attribute it to “author unknown” but I don’t want to do anything unethical. Since there’s no record of it anywhere (been searching for it for years), would it be ok to reproduce it within a larger original work?

I am planning to do a Udemy course to teach Polish language, with bits of different series and songs in it, for education. Explaining the words and phrases. Would that be a copyright?

What about letters from 1900

My thing os, fanfictions are a thing that is widely accepted as ok, nobody monetizes it, its purely a work of art, incorporating copyrighted work for the purpose of expressing your creativity and expressing your love for the original work. Inthe same vein, AMVs (Anime Music Videos) serve the same purpose, and yet somehow that is treated differently, why is that? Is an AMV somehow inherently less transformative in nature than a crossover fanfic? Many AMV creators, including myself dont monetize our content, meaning it is a labor of love. Love for the song, love for the anime. How is making AMVs less valid a form of fair use than fanfictions?

Bold, brilliant, creative, educational, and inspirational

Can never be really sure about this .

Thank you for these guidelines! I think the most important things are #1 not profiting off another's work and #2 attribution. I'm glad Fair Use is a thing so on a personal level we can talk about creative works we appreciate. I know exploits happen, so I'm also glad the law protects creators of original work. This was a great video to see the lines that should not be crossed.

So far So good, Poland

Spain, Cool.

Thank you for this video! :)

Can I use a company logo on a knit hat for personal use? Not to sell or distribute to anyone.

Hello your video has given me the opportunity the make the book I'm writing a lot more interesting. I want to write about musicians and composers but I find that the photos I can legally use in Wikipedia aren't as good as a photo off of that person's website. Do you think it would be excusable if I were to credit the website since I'm really bringing public attention to that artists official presentation of themselves. For example the photo of Alison Balsom in Wikipedia is extremely unflattering, but shes an exceptionally attractive person so I want to use a photo from her website or should I display the cover of one of her CDs? Is a CD cover public domain or an excusable copy of a person's work. I hope your not too bizzy to answer this enquiry.

if I use the drums as the sample and 4 seconds chorus voice just at the beginning. but the whole song is written by me and it's actually a rap song, so there is no melody to copy. can I upload that to Spotify"? how can I ask for permission I don't care if I don't make money with it. thanks.

Hey so how about closing an existing business website and changing the writing content somewhat into my own words and changing the colors a bit but keeping the layout of the website pretty similar that of the one copied your inted to the same business in another state? Great video, thanks again.

Understanding quantum mechanics is much easier than this Copyright Law.

Can I paraphrase for instance a short folklore anecdote without permission?

your sports game example. If they forbid people to talk about it , then people wont watch it and they do not make any money. The copy write claims are extended to the advantage of the creator really carefully, do not portray the creators as the victims here because they are paid by the audience, if no one talks about you you have no audience thus not making any money.

Can you talk about the laws about sampling audio from movies and tv shows in your music

They need to update the laws to fit our society today since most of the internet in infringing on copyright materials.
