 * Be Fair & Legal:**

When people usually think of the word “copyright” they might think about someone using someone else’s work in their own project. This is true, but according to dictionary.com the definition of is: “the exclusive right to make copies, license, and otherwise exploit a literary, musical, or artistic work, whether printed, audio, or video, etc.” Some legal and fair use guidelines for projects are some things such as: only using 1,000 words out of a magazine or book, only using 30 seconds of material from music, and only using 3 minutes of movies and video clips. Artists, authors, composers, and others that have published things, have protections on their work. After that person dies, you must wait 50-70 years before that piece of work can be fully open to the public. I hope this has answered some of your questions about what copyright is and more about it. media type="custom" key="12112808"

"In America, ideas that you create are protected with copyright laws. If you create a book, song, painting, architectural style, or movie then nobody else can make money from that idea without your permission. There are also rules in school that prevent students from copying other people's writing and submitting it as there own."
