Copyright – Legal Forms And Documents That Protect You From Copyright Infringement
In order to bring a copyright infringement lawsuit, the copyright holder must be able to establish three elements. The first, ownership of a valid copyright, requires that the copyright relate to an original work of authorship that is fixed in a tangible medium. The second element requires actual copying of that work, which can be shown using either direct evidence, indirect evidence, or a combination of both. Finally, a copyright holder must prove misappropriation. It is this third element that goes directly to the question posed in this article. How much of my work can be incorporated in another work before it constitutes copyright infringement?
Unfortunately, there is no definitive answer to this question. Instead, one must look to case law precedent to establish how much is too much. That being said, when alleging copyright infringement, the copyright holder must show that what was indeed taken and incorporated into the allegedly infringing work was copyright protectable. Once this is established, it is up to the plaintiff to show that the audience for the work will recognize “substantial similarities” between the two works. Although there is no set percentage, for example, to determine whether substantial similarity exists, two commonly recognized methods are available to assist in the misappropriation portion of a copyright infringement analysis.
Not to long ago there was a file sharing site that was in the news everyday. This file sharing site provided an arena where music could be shared amongst users. Basically a user would become a member by filling out a short membership form agree to the terms of service and would have immediate access to this website. The member would than be able to down load music that other members had uploaded to the site.
Today, courts will employ each of the above methods, and at times both methods, to aid in the misappropriation analysis. Given the factual nature of copyright law, it is not out of the question for one method to favor a copyright holder while the other method favors the alleged infringer. Therefore, it is worthwhile to, at the outset of any intended action for copyright infringement, analyze the likelihood of success under both methods. This will not only enable the copyright holder to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the particular case, but it will also allow the copyright holder to make a decision whether or not it is worthwhile pursuing a copyright infringement lawsuit. In the alternative, cease and desist letters, negotiation, for an amicable resolution, or other means short of litigation, such as copyright licensing, may be a possibility worth exploring.
Was it ok for the artist to manipulate an existing image? How much of the original image was altered in the creation of his poster? Was it enough to add red, white and blue and the word, “HOPE?”
Fairey stated, “Regardless of which of the two images was used, the fair use issue should be the same.” So we have artists and free speech advocates on one side versus photographers and journalists on the other side.
It will be interesting to see the outcome. Either fair use will triumph or Fairey will have to pay for use of the photograph
