In this week’s lecture we discovered the depths of ‘Intellectual Property and the Content Control Industry’ and the importance of copyright laws in protecting an individual’s unique product or idea. This creative material can come in all shapes or forms such as; a text, artistic creation, music, computer programs, sounds and movies. However, copyright does not protect one’s idea or form, it must come in a tangible or digital form where it can be seen or touched.
Copyright is a form of intellectual property.
Copyright owners have the right to prevent their creative material from being copied or communicated without their permission. Which can at times make a disadvantage for people who are struggling with ideas and need some inspiration.
CREATIVE COMMONS (CC)
If you don’t know who Creative Commons are, they are a worldwide establishment that offers copyright owners with free licenses which permits them to share, reuse and remix their creative material to the public for others to work with legally.
Overall, copyright and Creative Commons are essential for one to understand before innovating their very own unique creative material. This lets them protect material and not suffer from potential people stealing their design and making it their own.
