Creator Workshop: Copyright and DIY Media.
Conducted by Jennifer Urban and Joichi Ito

Copyright law is everywhere DIY media creators turn. Source material is under copyright; music is under copyright; the DIY creator's original work is eligible for copyright protection, as well. Both experienced and beginning creators often have some misconceptions about copyright law and how it relates to their work. Join Jennifer Urban and Joi Ito for a workshop on copyright and DIY media, and get answers to: What does copyright cover? How does "fair use" work? Help! My work has been pulled because of a DMCA takedown notice; what can I do? Where can I find source material that I can use without fear? ...and other conundrums of copyright for creators.
