Fair Dealing Situations - Fair Dealing and Copyright in Canada

Case One - Research 

 Under fair dealing, students can use and make copies of any works when needed for research. However, the excerpts copied cannot exceed 10% of the work, and if the research is to be published, either online or in print, the works used may not be included as this may not be considered fair dealing.

 Case Two - Criticism

 When reviewing or critiquing a given work, students may copy approximately 10% of the work, and may include portions within their work. As part of their work, the source and author's or creator's must be mentioned.

Case Three - Education

 Depending on the type of work, anywhere from 10% to the entirety of the work may be copied for educational use only.
Case Four - Satire

 Under fair dealing, students may communicate or and reproduce, in paper or electronic form, short excerpts (up to 10% of a given work, or the entirety of a single poem or artistic work) of copyright-protected works for satire purposes.

Public Domain and Creative Common Websites

Public Domain Archive Public Domain Archive offers a wide variety of free stock photos for commercial use. Compared to other websites I have visited or used in the past, I find this website offers beautiful photos that meet search criteria more accurately. The pictures are ones I would actually enjoy using in my own media creations or school presentations. The search bar was a bit hard to find when first arriving at the site and images would not load unless I clicked on each one individually, which was time consuming. Other than this however, I enjoyed this website and believe I could use the material offered when creating my own work. Public Domain Project The Public Domain Project offers an extensive library of video, audio, images, and even 3D model files available for commercial use. There is an abundance of each type of file, and when searching you can specify which file you are trying to find. This is an incredibly easy and simple website to use, and offers material that wo...

Web Design Prinicpals

In this raccoon design  by Diana Hlevnjak found on The Design Inspiration, I enjoy the cartoonish yet structured digital look of the animal's face, and the colours that Hlevnjak used in the piece. If I were adept in the art of graphic design and digital illustrations, this would be something I would try to recreate. The geometric aspect of the raccoon's face is something I find eye-catching and appealing. In this exhibit about creating textiles and furniture with material such as seaweed and algae called Waterschatten, found on Design of the World, I enjoy the colours and soft feel of the pieces comforting and aesthetically pleasing. It creates a clean look, which is something I would hope to incorporate into my website design.  Although these are sculptures made of clay, there is something about these Bizarre Human Sculptures  by Gerardo Feldstein that I can't help but love. I think it is the absurdity of them. One should be able to find the humour in the everyday, a...

Creating Sound Effects

The work of a Foley artists is so incredibly fascinating that I cannot wait to begin creating my own sounds to put to film. for this project, these are the sounds I hope to recreate and the materials I will need for each: Lighter  - the sound of a lighter being flicked. I will need a carabiner to recreate this sound. Dog Paws (on a hardwood floor) - the sound of dog paws/claws walking on a hardwood floor. I will need gloves, paper clips and a hardwood surface to recreate this sound. Chalk on Chalkboard - the sound of words being written on a chalkboard with chalk. I am actually not entirely sure how I will choose to recreate this sound yet. I could just record this exact sound as it happens, or find another way to recreate it. I have noticed that lightly tapping the metal end of a memory stick against the metal of the Macbook desktop sounds relatively similar, but I will figure it out. Walking/Footsteps  - the sound of someone walking in a room. I will only need...
