  • Is the new work merely a copy of the original? If it is simply a copy, it is not as likely to be considered fair use.
  • If the work is altered significantly, used for another purpose, appeals to a different audience, it more likely to be considered fair use.
  • The use of copyrighted works for nonprofit or educational purposes is more likely to be considered fair use.
