Remix, Reuse: New Rights Models for Docs

9:30 – 11:00 a.m., Discovery HD Theater

ReNew Media has partnered with Creative Commons and USC Law School IP Clinic to develop a “sampling toolkit” for filmmakers who want to make their films available for sampling under the Creative Commons license.  What are the limitations and opportunities?  What are the implications of using rights-managed footage to present a viewpoint or tell a story?  Friends, family, and classroom screenings are fine, but if you start making money, then shouldn’t everyone have a share?
