Copyright - YouTube Help - 0 views

  •  
    This section of YouTube's website deals with all issues of copyright. It provides a help in all manners of copyright, including how to tell if something is copyright protected, how to get permission, and how to provide credit to the original owner of an idea or material. This website will be helpful in my research. Using YouTube's definitions, I can begin to understand how credit and ownership is decided for content and videos. This will also help me to understand the rules for "borrowing" copyrighted material and distinguish what is classified as copyright.

Copyright and the Internet - 0 views

  •  
    This website describes the definition of copyright, plagiarism, its history, and some guidelines to follow to avoid copyright. Most importantly, it deals with the concept of copyright and the internet. This website is a useful resource for my project because it will help me to understand the role that the internet plays into the preexisting laws.

Stephenie Meyer sued for Twilight copyright - 0 views

  •  
    Stephenie Meyer has been allegedly sued to "stealing" the vampire novel idea from Jordan Scott. Apparently Scott began writing a novel in 2003, which she published online, that had "similarities in language, plot lines, characters, and other points" with Meyer's fourth installment in the Twilight series "Breaking Dawn." This website is helpful because it yet again will help me to define what copyright means to Meyer herself, which will help me decide how the videos affect copyright law.

Fair Use, Film, and the Advantages of Internet Distribution - Cinema Journal 46:2 - 0 views

  •  
    This article deals with the topic of "fair use," which is the copyright doctrine that allows the use of copyrighted works in certain circumstances without having to gain the owner's permission. It also correlated "fair use" with the popular video sharing website YouTube. This source was found through the database Project Muse. It was printed in the University of Texas Press. Its information is credible and useful. As for my project, this article will be helpful in determining if "fair use" applies in connection with fan remix videos of Twilight. Once this is determined, I will be able to better define the creators of these remixes.

Remix Culture -- Videos -- Center for Social Media - 0 views

  •  
    This website deals with remix videos. It allows people to create their own remixes as well as informs them about the laws regulating copyright and remix issues. This is another forum, like YouTube and Creative Commons, that encourages and allows users to interact, recreate, and remix the topic of his or her liking. It will be helpful to my topic by providing yet another example of the fascination and movement toward interacting with a published and copyrighted item. It also helps me to define how remixing videos should be governed.

Remix-Based Read/Write Culture - 0 views

  •  
    Lawrence Lessig deals with the read/write remix culture and the copyright laws that are attempting to strangle this new form of expression. The father of Creative Commons, Lessig exposes intellectual property law and its absurdity in today's internet culture. The website offers clips of Lessig's presentations about this topic. This will be helpful for my topic, which is essentially a form of read/write collaborative remixing. This will help me to define the laws governing this innovative culture.

Twitter Opens a Door to Iowa Operating Room - ABC News - 0 views

  •  
    I first read this story in the DA and it was very intriguing. A hospital in Iowa has allowed surgeons to start "tweeting" the process of their surgery to the patient's family members. It is an easy and efficient way to follow a patient's progress as they go under the knife. The patient's family in this article tracked the developments from a laptop computer in the hospital's waiting room. One of the daughter-in-laws even kept tabs from work. The surgeon sent more than 300 tweets over more than three hours from a computer outside the operating room. Over 700 people followed them, some even asking questions. This is a great way to get glimpse into an actual operating room. Iowa has not been the first hospital to use Twitter, others include Children's Medical Center in Dallas, which tweeted in May when a father donated a kidney to his son, and Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, where officials have tweeted about several surgeries since January. My question is, is could I use the "tweets" this surgeon is sending and write my own article about the operation? Are the surgeons' tweets copyrighted?

    This website is Stephenie Meyer's official website. She shares her motivations for writing the book, the process, glimpses into each book, and information about herself. The most interesting section is the link called Midnight Sun, in which she details how her 5th novel was illegally released before publication on the internet.

Derivative work - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  •  
    "Copyright infringement liability for a later work arises only if the later work embodies a substantial amount of protected expression taken from the earlier, underlying work. The later work must take enough protected expression (it does not matter how much unprotected material is taken, for the latter is open to the public) for the later work to be "substantially similar" to the earlier work."

User-Penetrated Content: Fan Video in the Age of Convergence - 0 views

  •  
    This article provides a harsh criticism to YouTube, saying that it encroaches upon the "legitimacy and perhaps even survival of forms of vernacular creativity." This source was found through Project Muse and published in the "Cinema Journal." In regards to my project, it will be useful to have an opposing perspective to the videos posted upon YouTube. This perspective will help me to determine my theories and opinions on user-generated remixes and extensions of popular media.
