Copyright. Oh, My.
So over at CreateMixedMedia.com, I tackle the subject of copyright. Oh, not in any legal, technical, here-are-your-answers way. But, in truth, here ARE your answers. Maybe we'll provoke a discussion. Part I is up today; I'll try to remind you when Part II goes up on Wednesday.

I just left a comment on the copyright part 1!!!
Love to have your opinion and glad you are writing about it.
Interesting. This is something I think about every time I have to go thru porn magazines instead of paying a nude model to draw erotica and illustrate. Some of my illustrations are drawings of models that got paid and photographers who own copyrights of the images. Then I get to put those illustrations in books I get paid for. Although, honestly, when I'm drawing those bodies, I feel like I'm giving them a better purpose than just posing for someone who will masturbate once and throw them away. I make sure my illustrations are consumed by people with more artistic sensibility than just curious about porn, that by picking what kind of texts or writers I collaborate with. Although I guess we all work for the same industry, but that's another topic.
Can't wait for part II.
So, I did read part II. And apart from feeling alright for using porn photos for an artistic purpose, I do a bit responsible for breaking "the law". I guess I can always undress myself to illustrate erotica, that's definitely going to allow me to get on a next level and charge more (hopefully).
