4. original original original Copyright gives the “original” author of the book, “original” creator of the video, “original” composer of music, etc. the exclusive legal right to… Reproduce Distribute Make adaptations & Perform the works they created.

5. So when does copyright begin?

6. moment of creation From the moment of creation, the minute you hit save, the first track you lay down, the first video you record… Get the idea? right away It happens right away.

7. So how long does copyright last?

8. 70 years From the moment of creation until 70 years after the death of the creator. For works-for-hire (work done by an employee for part of his/her job or when someone is hired to create a work), copyright lasts 95 years from publication or 120 years from creation (whichever is shorter).

11. So when is it OK for me to use copyrighted material? FairUse It’s called… Fair Use

12. Fair Use allows you to use a portion of the copyrighted material… as long as the following FOUR FOUR factors are considered: 1.What is the Purpose of the use? 2.What is the Nature of the copyrighted work to be used? 3.What is the Amount and substantiality of the portion used? 4.What is the Effect on the market?

13. Purpose of the use -Criticism and comment -News reporting -Research Nature of the copyrightedwork -Fact -Imaginative -Published -Unpublished Amount and substantiality of the portion used -Quantity -Quality Effect on the Market - Will it take profit away from creator

14. exempt But I thought educators were “exempt” from copyright issues. Not completely, there is still that Fair Use thing that we must consider.

15. Keep this in mind when trying to determine Fair Use - am I creating something new or just copying it? - will my creation take potential profits away from the original creator? - the more I take, it’s probably not going to be considered Fair Use (quantity…baby!) - the more important the info is to the work, it’s probably not going to be considered Fair Use (quality…baby!)

16. can So as an educator what can I do about … Photocopying Videos & Movies Images Multimedia Presentations Software Music ?????
