Video editing > Author rights

Recommended Posts

Hi,

This post is not in any way a call to look for a possible way to go around Author right, like many others i just like to do video editing and like a whole bunch off us it is just a hobby. For this we use ingame captured footage with fraps or a other related programm some off us do a re cut off the original footage of the game and put it in there own context, we use for this a video editing program like Sony vegas pro or camtasia or any other related software.

to add and give the screens a good feeling we use music for it, and this is the part thats getting frustrating in some ways. By all means i do understand why autor rights do exsist and i know that it protects the person that composed the music, in some situations the autor right will be given to a firm. The point is that to my fealing this is going a little to far, that composers and producers even firms that buy the copy rights or autor rights have to be protected for mis using the content.

For me mis using the content is defined as taking the content and release it and get money out off it without permission off the composer firm or autor. but the rights off copy rights give the autor the right to block any other use off the content for examplel hobby related video editing w.o. raising any financial bennefits off it ...

anyway, to my feeling a have a whole bunch off music legaly paid in the store, that can fit in any scene off arma II video editing just for plesure and hobby. I know i can use sertain music w.o. the video getting blocked by youtube or such related sites. I also know now that i have music that will be blocked even if you point it out that it is just a hobby.

My point is that i want to know, how can i know wich pease off music will be blocked and wich not before i use it, i can do video editing but i cant make my own music :( so im deamed to use music off those that can for my video editing ....

in the end it just feels like some autors, or the rights are tightly a bit to heavy as a pest for a hobbyist that wants to do video editing ....

regards

There's quite a bit of great music released under Creative Commons licences (usually free for non-commercial use). Just check the web.
