“What Kind of Work is protected by Copyright? - Literary works, Musical works, Dramatic works, Pantomimes and choreographic works, Pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works, Motion pictures and other audiovisual works, and Sound recordings.”
“What is copyright? - Quite literally; the right to copy. No one has a right to copy anything tangible that they didn’t create unless they’ve been given specific license to do so.”
“9 copyright laws every video producer should know. - Copyright Infringement
Releases, Recording Location, Legal Audio, Stills and Images, Fair Use, Copyright Notice, and Duration of a Copyright.”
I can honestly say that my sources are firmly correct in their explanations of what someone like me should do to protect my property and to avoid taking the ideas of others. Getting in trouble with the law is that last thing I want to do, and I believe I have taken the first step in avoiding any bad habits in relation to copyright law.
Just like as shown above copyright law is quite literally the right to copy. To copy someone elses idea(s) is just “bad sportsmanship”. Yea, you can take someone’s picture or video and make it your own piece of art if it isn’t knowingly theirs, but what skill have you taught yourself? You haven’t learned anything but how to take advantage of someone elses work.
