David Lev the laws have been changed, it will be based off of 70 years after the last mickey mouse copyrighted work gets printed. if you add a new idea to an existing copyright, than the copryright gets extended as if the new idea was the original copyrighted material. so if disney owns the copyright (as a company) and one of its employees writes a new mickey mouse story than the copyright now extends to 20 years past the new production. the copyright of mickey mouse is owned by a company and not a person. disney already addressed this problem some time ago. that is why they have the vault, its a timer on a mild change made to a movie that is about to fall out of copyright (20 years after the original is no longer in active population).

Eli Nope lol not true at all... by adding to the copyright you do not magically extend the copyright for the original impression. Moreover, the copyright goes from the date of creation... not from the date of last publication, that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. You need to read up a bit.

It could be a picture of an iPhone, edited in to a template in photoshop, so designers can display there apps on the screen. My question is - Am i allowed to take pictures of the interior of say the new "Tesla Model S" and transform the dashboard touchscreen into a template, and then sell them? With the Tesla logo in frame.. Or do i have to remove the logo? Hope you have a minute, and you can make sense of what im asking :) All the best

nhaugaard1 I work with (a certain area of) copyright all the time, although I'm not an expert. However, my gut instinct is this: strictly speaking, if you remove the logo, you're well within the law. However, you could also very likely leave the logo in with no negative ramifications - from their point of view, what you're providing is essentially advertising for them, so they would be crazy to try to stop you doing it. However, I always think it's worthwhile to get permission if you can, and you'd be surprised how easy it can be to get in touch with the right people sometimes. Just ask.

RozzamaTRON Thank you for your answar :) Thats exactly what i am thinking. I have done some mockup in the past, and they have been downloaded more then 150K times. By designers. So yes, its amazing free advertising for the product. I all ready contacted different companies like Tesla and Apple. But with no respons what so ever. But when i look at Graphicriverdotnet where people sell mockups i noticed they just avoid using the correct name for the product, and changes it, like: "Apple Watch = iWatch" - And then removes the logo completely.

nhaugaard1 Just to let you know, the above answers are incorrect. You cannot use the interior of a car and simply remove the logo and say its your design. Thats certainly a violation of likely trademark or trade dress law. You certainly could not say or imply its a tesla s interior with or without the logo. And again, about the "free advertising" thing, the whole point of copyright law is to give the creator THE CHOICE of whether to engage his work in any ways. It doesnt matter if it would be technically beneficial for them or give them "free advertising", the point is they have the RIGHT to choose for themselves not have you choose for them unilaterally (without their input) simply because you feel it will be good advertising for them. I would seriously advise against having a model thats exactly like a trademarked product. You are certainly violating their rights, you just may be too small to go after.

I thought I was really going to enjoy this series, but I'm quickly realizing that it's mostly just going to make me furiously angry over everything I hate about copyright law.

somewony No, someone should at least be able to make money off their creation throughout their lifetime. If I released an album in 1995 and in 2015 it gets "rediscovered" and suddenly there's a huge second wave for me... I should be able to profit from this. Once I'm dead though, I don't think my estate should be able to profit from it longer than a few years (if at all).

Being a musician, copyright is critical. And these videos are incredibly informative and helpful for musicians of any genre. Highly recommend!

I am a law student studying copyright and from my understanding of the law this video is fantastically done. Highly accurate, incredibly comprehensive for a ten minute video, well organized, interesting.

11:30 Way the frig too long. We need to restore the copyright term to 14 years with *one* 14 year extension.

You know what? A finite set of time may not be the best method of keeping copyrights active, particularly for digital works and media. Some works remain popular for decades, while others are difficult if not impossible to obtain through a legal sale after a few short years. Why can't we come up with a "use it or lose it" copyright law,where if a product is not given any means of a legal sale accessible to the majority of the population, it expires after a short time, like say 5-10 years, then the life + 70 rule can define an upper limit? Not only does this allow for continued protection of works as long as the copyright holder feels it is beneficial to make use of it, but when it is decided the product is no longer making money or protecting an interest, it can expire freely in a relatively short time. Of course, some loopholes might need to be investigated such as "what constitutes a product being available for sale to the majority of the population" - I could definitely see a company arguing that they have a copy of a work available in a proprietary format from the 90s that is no longer in use and therefore almost impossible for people to make use of, for example, so a definition of "readily available to the majority of the population" might need to be in order. Someone might claim that it could be difficult to maintain something available for "sale" but it costs very little to keep a GB of data available on a cloud-based store for distribution these days. If the company does not make enough in sales to maintain that presence, the product likely would not make much more money over the life of the life+70 copyright anyway without some sort of massive revival that occurs mostly by chance. The only remaining obvious problem I would then see is keeping track of all this, in which case I would argue the copyrights need to be made searchable in a public database so people can easily find out what is copyrighted and what is not.

***** Yeah, but why? Copyright does not serve to promote the pockets of the creators of works. It serves to promote the creation of works. After a certain period the added incentive to create works starts getting smaller than the prevention of adaptive works. Copyright should not be longer than that.

I'm not really one to argue the appropriate maximum length as it's been debated to hell and back with no one side wanting to give the other any leeway, I just want a way to remove copyright protection from abandoned works that the original copyright holder no longer cares to maintain. I'm just using the current law as an example of the upper limit in this case.

somewony ah I see. I didn't consider adaptive works, but as far as I'm aware adaptive works only have a copyright for themselves, not the older work. For example, if spiderman 2 is released, it doesn't stop spiderman 1 from entering public domain when it's copyright expires, regardless of the new movie. As for characters and franchises... I guess that's a whole other can of worms. I was thinking more about individual works than whole franchises, but I suppose my solution would work there, you get up to life+70 on the franchise, but if you let the first work expire, that single work is not public domain, regardless of the status of the franchise.

@Ddub1083

***** An issue you seem to be missing is that currently a creator of work CAN remove the copyright. They can remove the copyright and put a GPL or Collective Commons license on the work whenever they want... they choose not to, because they wish to make money from their work. If you have a desire to make an adaptive or derivative work, then there is a demand for the ip in the original work. Since there's a demand, there is a price where it can be had. Your theory presupposes that some work has essentially lost all copyright value in being unused, but if its wanted in an adaptive work then its value is not 0... and therefore the copyright still has value. Your program would only work for copyrighted works that no one wants to use... so what good is that? The point however is not what is "good" for other creators... the point of copyright is what is good for the original creator. The copyright means its THEIR choice what to do with their work... when you make something automatic you are stripping their property right (intellectual property) to do with their work as they please. Imagine you own a vacant lot... you have the right to do whatever you want with that property or do nothing if you want. you can prevent others from going on it but you arent forced into "using" your land... its your property. Same with copyright, imagine if your vacant lot became govt property or public property simply because you didnt use it.

***** That's a good point, a lifetime copyright could actual cause a person to produce less great works because they can retire off of one good one.

I think we need to go with the original limit here: 14 years is plenty. 14 years after 'Star Wars' first hit theaters, George Lucas had made $2.6 billion on the merchandising alone. 14 years is plenty to make your money. After that, it should default to the Public Domain, where others can use it. This means that people who grow up with a work can make different versions, creations, and adaptations of it in their own lifetime, growing and expanding our art, culture, and mythology.

I just think it's awesome that Thought Cafe animated themselves as dogs. XD

Thank you for doing this series. I had a thought recently that I would have liked to watch a series on ip to understand a bit more about it and, lo and behold, you start making a series about it.

Having copyright through the life span of the original creator sounds good to me. However, once I die, there will be no need for +70 years of copyright. I'm sure at least 7 years is more than enough time for my future business to get back on track without me...That is, if the world and I don't end Tomorrow. Lol

The problem is essentially that Disney is using ancient copyrighted works, and they have a lot of lobbying power, so it keeps getting extended. Perhaps the duration of copyright shouldn't be fixed, but contingent on continued use of that copyright with respect to new works. Basically, while the copyright holder is using the intellectual property to create new works, he can hold it indefinitely, but otherwise it expires after (for example) 25 years.

Darth Vader No. It's tricky to explain because it mostly relies on a provision of copyright law that's more of a defense than an outright rule, but basically since you're using the name and image in such an inconsequential way without making any profit off of the idea you're fine. Copyright infractions mostly depend on the owner of the copyright making some noise about it, so as long as it's this small Disney isn't going to bother. No judge would convict, even if you are technically breaking the law.

*Short rant about the "+70 years", you can skip it for the interesting (I hope) questions* I really hate the "+70 years". If you want to set an "at least X time" so that the author dying doesn't pose problems to corporations, make it, I don't know, 70 years extendable as long as the author lives. 70 years, we're talking letting 3 generations profit from the work of someone, even if he died right after making it, some persons will profit actively (not counting heritage) of the writings of a person they only heard of a few times in their life ! *QUESTION TIME !!!* In the case of companies, the idea of "works for hire" combined with "as long as the owner lives" confuses me. In France, companies are legally categorized as "personne morale" (moral being), meaning they are considered like a living entity in the eyes of the law. I believe this is the same in the USA (please correct me if wrong, I am not a lawyer, not even in France). Wouldn't that make the company, a potentially immortal being, the author, and thus, make the work copyrighted forever ? I also wonder, in the case of works for hire, does the hired author keep any rights to his works (putting aside the monetary ones) ? For example, if I produce an algorithm that my company then detains the copyrights to, am I allowed to use it in other works, outside of the company, assuming the algorithm wasn't protected by other agreements such as non-disclosure ? I think this Crash Course is a great idea. I love creating stuff, but the legal matters have always been a nightmare to me.

So in that sense, no, you do not have the right to use it (without their permission) in outside works.

Great show! thank you very much!

Thanks for a marvellous summary. The video was thoroughly entertaining and informative. 💙 Anyway, in context of a certain country in SEA originality of expression to get copyright must be within the following: " ..expression will be original so long as the work is not copied from some other work , and so long as there is a degree of intellectual effort, labour and skill involved in creating the work" 💖

roomba bit was awesome! cheers

This is such a great video.

thank you for the lesson.

I think that a copyright should last about 25 years. We all work on the ideas of others and to limit someone from ever using an idea from the time they were alive is crazy.

Why cover the author's personal life though?

Just look at how KZread and Copyright claims lay waste to small channels. This is just ridiculous

Oh my, so much information to understand. And yes I am a real person, and yes 120 years shorter than 90 years! and still such a long time, will it even be remotely relevant by then? Thanks for the video, its been very helpful.

I think that's not only way too long, but it seriously stifles the growth of new ideas. It'd really be great to have the opportunity to see what would happen to something in the hands of its fans, which is kinda hard to happen when the copyright on it basically says "No, you are not allowed to use Han Solo as a character in this otherwise original work of art, he is copyrighted and licensing fees are enormous enough that you would never be able to pay them out of pocket, and no studio is backing you, so f-- off." Then the original fans die out, and all the ideas that COULD have happened are lost to time. Meanwhile, the major copyright holders either milk the product for all it's worth under their control, or let the ideas from it slowly dim away, only letting it flare up again when they stifle the new production from it. I've seen that happen to two absolutely brilliant re-hashes of 35-40 year old IPs. And what's worse is, they were both entirely out of public memory, so it's not like they were trying to capitalize on the popularity of star wars or something and steal from that (like in my example above,) but rather trying to revitalize a storyline that had gone by the wayside and nobody remembered anything about.

I have a question, if I as a person who owns the rights to lets a book I authored can I set the number of years my estate owns the copy to be less then it is under current law?

That was a hell of a good video. 😊

This was a great show :)

Crash course Law would be awesome!

Make it a flat 25 years. If you sit around and figure "well I can only collect money on my work for 25 years, what they heck is the point?" then you are in a tiny minority. Copyright encourages people to create because it ensures them that they will be able to collect money based on the market value of their work, someone else can't just sell what you created. But your work is based on the culture you draw from and probably based in part on previous works. Therefore, the public gets ownership of your work after you have had some time to make your money based on it.

Awesome work Crash Course

Stan, you're awesome!

Thank you

That magic 8 ball makes me so happy and I don't know why

What if someone writes an A.I. that can compose musik (doesnt have to be good or complex i guess), does the copyright go automatically to the person writing the code for the a.i.? because I think programms are going to be able to create content (again no matter if good or bad) and how are people going tto handle that if not already...?

His voice is really soothing

Does work created for a contest count as a work for hire or is there/can there be something within the contest rules that decides ownership? For instance, could I enter a design in a contest, not win, and then turn around and sell prints of my artwork or is there something that could prohibit that?

In Indonesia, it can take up to 5 years for a particular copyright (like a logo) to be approved. Afterwards, it is only protected for 10 years.

I have an important question, what if someone were to make a copy of a song say film it on their phone and upload that to KZread... then I were to play that KZread video and film that with my phone and upload it to KZread. Would that be infringing on copyright laws? The issue with making KZread videos and monetizing them is not clear to me even though I've been doing it for over a year. It seems I can record a radio station playing and upload it to monetize however some other songs from the radio don't allow me to, what's the deal. The same goes with movies I will play a DVD or Blu-ray on my television recorded upload it to KZread and some will allow me to monetize it others won't. I am really wondering though if you were to Play a KZread video of a song and record that with your phone and upload it to KZread would that be copyright infringement?

YES STAN HAS TAKEN OVER

good info --- cheers

If someone copyrights a certain item style is that item covered in the us or only in Europe?

Love the daredevil reference in this one.

so useful for school stuff thanks

Good video. Should highlight that there are a number of variant copyright protection laws in various countries that differ. The UK for example has the same closed list 8 category subject matter based system but they're categorised differently and the originality requirement are different. Thus internationally claiming for copyright might be different to that of the US. Equally there are a number of international treaties that could effect this. But maybe they'll cover that later

Best way to learn here

"Oh wait I'm stan" killed me

Would love to see a video of how to actually file for a patent in the uk as I’m in the uk and can only find info on KZread about US patents Ps great video entertaining and educational thanks for sharing all this info 🥳

I hope you make a case for the current specifics of intellectual property laws, in a future video. So far you started the video series by discussing misgivings the general public has with them, but haven't countered them. Granted, you need to lay some foundation first, and that's what these first few episodes are for. I'm looking forward to the later episodes, is all :)

so if the publication happens right before the 120 years end, will the 90 years for publication be added or will it follow that time remaining 120 years?

Congrats on 3million subs

Nice daredevil reference 😃
