Re: [videoblogging] Sports highlight footage?
Consider the use of sports highlight footage by competing television networks. The networks have a mutual agreement whereby they can air the highlight footage, in return for letting other networks air the highlights to which they have exclusive rights. Even though the highlights are short, they are the most valuable part of a recording of a sports event. To the extent that it might be argued that fair use applied, it would not be to the highlights, but would be to the routine play in between the highlights - the type of footage that doesn't make for compelling news coverage. Also, there are exceptions to the mutual agreement, which is why you will frequently find that highlight footage from Olympic events is broadcast only on the network which purchased the rights to broadcast the Olympic games. http://www.expertlaw.com/library/intellectual_property/fair_use.html (first google result for: sports highlights fair use) Unless the point of the project is to rise this issue/debate of fair use for sports highlights (that would be an interesting experiment) then i think you may eventually risk the possibility of wasting your time by having to respond to some lawyers and take down the content. In the spirt of IDGAF, good luck finding more footage. I don't know of any specific repoz. sull On Wed, Oct 14, 2009 at 8:25 PM, Adam Quirk qu...@wreckandsalvage.comwrote: Not when you don't care about outdated laws.

Copyrights are an issue, because they make it hard to get the source footage. What I'm going to do with it will fall under Fair Use.

Hey all, I'm making a couple videos featuring highlights from baseball and football. I've found some pretty decent stuff by torrenting some 100 best football plays DVDs and such, but I'm wondering if any of you know of any good online repositories for sports clips? Youtube is pretty quick to delete stuff from ESPN, and ESPN.com and MLB.com are both pretty worthless for this sort of thing. Copyrights are not an issue for this project.
