[At-Large] ODP: ODP: Presentation Tips

I'd be happy to prepare a more detailed discussion of fair use, but here's
a short description adapted from one I prepared recently for another
purpose:

*FAIR USE*



Copyright owners control several exclusive rights -- the right to:



   - reproduce the work,
   - distribute copies of the work,
   - perform the work,
   - publicly display the work,
   - transmit the work digitally,
   - make derivative works (adaptations, etc.) of the work.

This is often referred to as the "bundle of rights."



There is a limited “*fair use*” exception to the copyright owner’s control
of these rights.  More accurately, it is a defense to a claim of copyright
infringement. Practically, the fair use exception is used to determine
whether one can make a particular use of a copyrighted work without
permission (or obligation for payment).


Fair use considers four factors in a "balancing test" where no one factor
is dispositive and the importance of the factors may vary based on
context.  The four factors are:


   1. The purpose of the use (e.g., comment, criticism, and teaching
   relating to the work or using the work in a relevant way favor fair use;
   parody favors fair use, but only if the copyrighted work is being
   parodied.  Overall, the analysis often looks at whether the use is
   "transformative" -- does it add new expression, meaning, insight,
   aesthetics or understandings to the original work?)
   2. The nature of the publication (broadly speaking, commercial vs.
   non-commercial, with the latter favoring fair use)
   3. The amount and substantially of the work used; (use of an entire work
   disfavors fair use, while use of a small part of the work is likely to
   favor fair use; however, the importance of the part taken will also be
   considered -- taking the "heart" of a work or the "hook" of a song will
   disfavor fair use)and
   4. The effect on the [potential] market for the copyrighted work (i.e..,
   will the intended use act as a substitute or replacement for the
   copyrighted work in the marketplace, such that the market for the
   copyrighted work is diminished)

A fair use analysis balances these four factors in determining if a use is
fair.  While no one factor is dispositive, the first factor often leads the
way.  However, taking an entire work for a commercial purpose will also
lead the way (away from fair use).  In the end, it is a fact-intensive
balancing test, which is often difficult in close cases, even for
experienced lawyers.


There is far more to the subject than this, and this should not be taken as
legal advice.


Two final notes:


   - The discussion above relates only to *copyright* fair use.  Trademark
   fair use is a separate subject.
   - The discussion above related to US law only.  Related concepts in
   other legal systems work quite differently, and are often more narrow than
   US fair use.

I hope this is helpful.  Happy to answer questions or to be part of the
presentation being discussed.

Best regards,

Greg
