[videoblogging] NaVloPoMo, Day 23 is ready!
Here's my video - http://davidleeking.com/etc/2009/11/23/navlopomo-wheres-daddy/ In Mike Moons videohttp://mikemoon.net/vlog/2009/11/22/day-22-return-vlomo-2009/, he appears and disappears a time or two, and his familiar backyard scene keeps jumping around. That reminded me of my busy work and travel schedule, and how I might be constantly appearing, disappearing, and reappearing again to my kids. Hence, I appear and disappear a bunch in the video, which is set to echoey music. Special thanks to the crow who somehow chirped in time to the beat.

Re: [videoblogging] Copyright Music?
So just to be clear... you guys are all cool with someone (oh, I dunno, let's say a musician) taking your video, and using it in any way they like, for whatever purpose they choose, even if you don't agree with it, and even if you have not released it under a sharing license? So if a multinational corporation uses your video and makes money from it, you're OK with that? If a huge record label uses it as they please, it's all good? I'm a huge supporter of Creative Commons, but I'm also respectful of people's work and allowing them to choose how they share it/how it is used, and not just being a jerk and taking it. I'd expect all creatives to think in a similar way, but sadly, I'm always amazed by people who work hard in one craft (let's say video) are so willing to take what someone else has created (let's say a musician) and do what they please with it without permission, or attribution, or anything else.

Re: [videoblogging] Copyright Music?
Hey Pete, I'm cool with that. It would be great to get attribution (or even $) but really I just want people to see what I make. I don't pretend that I've made anything wholly original (I don't think anyone has) and I'm happy for people to use it as inspiration. Artists build off of the work of others without permission all of the time and to pretend otherwise is dishonest. In this world I think (and it's the case for myself personally) artists are more often negatively impacted by obscurity than by someone using their work without permission. Here's a recent video I made using some music from The Flaming Lips: http://michaelverdi.com/2009/11/03/embryonic/ The band did not loose anything in this transaction. Hopefully they've gained a new fan or two. In fact the whole reason I even bought that album was because I'd fallen in love with other albums of theirs that I'd downloaded illegally. Again that transaction (the illegal download) didn't cost the band a dime because I wasn't going to purchase those albums anyway and it resulted in me purchasing their latest. In fact I'd love to give them some more of my money to see them in concert (and probably buy a t-shirt) during their current tour. This craziness that publishing something entitles you to a monopoly on it that can be extended for a ridiculous amount of time is well, ridiculous. And in the case of non-commercial reuse, e.g. free advertising, can be harmful to try to enforce. You end up treating fans or customers like criminals. That's an easy way to appear like an asshole. Anyone here ever have to call Microsoft after reinstalling Windows? What a bunch of bullshit that is. Anyway, I could go on and on - this topic makes me so angry. Or rather what makes me angry is that we've let corporations set the conversation (and laws) about what property is and we've got artists totally buying into it even though for 99.9% of them it's not in their self-interest (it's like poor people voting for Republicans). What I'm always amazed by is that artists steal intellectual property like they breath air and then get pissed when someone else returns the honor. - Verdi On Mon, Nov 23, 2009 at 1:06 PM, Pete Prodoehl ras...@gmail.com wrote: So just to be clear... you guys are all cool with someone (oh, I dunno, let's say a musician) taking your video, and using it in any way they like, for whatever purpose they choose, even if you don't agree with it, and even if you have not released it under a sharing license?
