- Creative Commons Licence
- A Creative Commons (CC) license is one of several public
copyright licenses that enable the free distribution of an
otherwise copyrighted work. A CC license is used when an
author wants to give people the right to share, use, and
build upon a work that they have created.
- "Free Advertising" License -
allows others to do the
duplication and
re-distribution for you
- Protection from people
modifing your work if they
use, (must be used
""verbatim"")
- in order to
preserve the
original
integrity of
the work
- Protects you from people selling anything
using your work and not paying you for it
- Nicer to use a license that lets you keep your options open.
- Non-commercial option too restrictive
for Professions who are already planning
on selling their creations.
- You are
shutting
yourself off
from having
your works
used in
creative
projects if you
don't allow
derivative
works.
- No Derivative works option
may be too restrictive if artist
isn't sure how their work is
going to come out in the end (as
potentially a derivative work).
- Non-commercial option too
restrictive for artists who might want
to stay open to making money on
the work in the future or are just
plain unsure what exactly they will
be doing with their finished product
- Derivative works are the
hottest thing going right now.
"remixes" and "mashups" are a
great way to gain exposure for
you as an artist.
