Understanding Copyright

Case #1

 The first case I looked at was if the published work is a book, it's being used for educational purposes, and is part of a class handout. The outcome is that this use of copyrighted material is permitted. You may copy 10 percent, or a full chapter. As long as it is for the use of education.

 Case #2

 The second case I looked at was a musical score, or poem. It is from a copyright protected work, and is being used for educational purposes as a handout. This is permitted under fair use laws, as long as it is for education purposes. You may copy entire poems or musical scores for the purpose of education.

Case #3

 The third type of work is audiovisual, so a film, television show, or a sound recording. If this type of work is being used for private study or research, it is permitted and not infringing on the copyright laws. You may copy 10 percent of this work if it is being used for private study.

This artist makes concepts for video games, film, and animations, which are all things I am very interested in so it's cool to see the artwork that is behind them. The artist is very talented at drawing terrain and is also very good at depicting size, as a lot of his pieces include monsters that are the height of skyscra
