Geek Out with Valerie Lovely: Copyright for Belly Dancers (as of 2013)
Manage episode 174953899 series 1299023
My guest, music attorney Valerie Lovely talks about music copyright concerns for belly dancers. We’re also joined by paralegal and dancer Joie Grandbois (Selcouth).
*** DISCLAIMERS: ***
- Copyright law varies from country to country, and Atty. Lovely can only address US copyright law. The general concepts are universal, but the specific details we cover only apply to dancers operating in the US. (Although if you sell DVDs to the American market, you’ll need to know this, regardless of where you live.)
- US copyright law has changed since this call was recorded almost 10 years ago, so some of this may (very likely!!!) be out of date.
- Attorney Lovely is providing legal information, NOT legal advice.
So while this episode can introduce you to the basic principles of US copyright law, please seek out more recent information, and ideally, personalized legal advice from a copyright attorney in your own country.
*********************
You’ll learn:
- What copyright is
- When you need permission to use a work (or not!)
- How to license music
- Who is responsible for licensing music when you perform or teach
- Licensing concerns for video: from YouTube to DVDs to rehearsal videos
- Licensing concerns for Skype classes
