Copyright Resources
Do I have to cite music, video clips, photos
or other files used in video submission?
Yes. If copyrighted materials
(including music, audio, graphics/images, or other copyrighted
material) are used in the creation of the
video project, they must be cited in your application form. All
uses of copyrighted material must adhere to fair use guidelines
(See below for additional information about Fair Use). It is solely
the responsibility of the applicant to secure any necessary permission
to use copyrighted material in whole or in part within a SVC 2008
submission. For example, if a submission includes eight (8) different
music samples over the course of the video, there should be eight
(8) different listings in the citations included as part of the
submission. Failure to include citations of all copyrighted work
will result in the disqualification of a submission.
Educators and
students must credit sources, giving full bibliographic information
available. Copyright information may be shown in a
separate bibliographic section.
“Educators and students who anticipate their
work may be more broadly disseminated are advised to seek permissions
during the development
process.” (PBS TeacherSource) Please note SVC 2008 state
finalists and Videos of the Year may be posted on the eTech Ohio
website or disseminated through other channels.
