For some stupid reason I posted this earlier on videonews by mistake. http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/03/21/judge-rules-against-artist-richard-prince-in-copyright-case/?scp=1&sq=fair%20use%20copyright&st=cse
I remember someone here a while back questioning the concept that in order to qualify under "fair use" , the use did indeed have to be "transformative" While nothing in this case is related to film, it continues to establish that "fair use' is for taking limited portions of copyrighted works to create new works.I wonder if the UCLA lawyers are making notes. -- Jessica Rosner Media Consultant 224-545-3897 (cell) 212-627-1785 (land line) jessicapros...@gmail.com
VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
