[videoblogging] NaVloPoMo, Day 23 is ready!

2009-11-23 Thread David King
Here's my video -
http://davidleeking.com/etc/2009/11/23/navlopomo-wheres-daddy/

In Mike Moon’s 
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?

2009-11-23 Thread Pete Prodoehl

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.

(Sorry for the rant, it's been a while! :)

Re: [videoblogging] Copyright Music?

2009-11-23 Thread Michael Verdi
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.
