In particular, my piece, "When We Two Parted" (based on the poem of the same name) recently hit the front page of YouTube - see<BR/><BR/>http://byron.strangecompany.orgHugh "Nomad" Hancockhttp://www.strangecompany.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11515224.post-29575446034224223912008-05-30T15:07:00.000+02:002008-05-30T15:07:00.000+02:00Anything done in Second Life will be fine, as the creators take rights in their creations in the world (provided, of course, that the machinimists asked permission of the areas they filmed in...)<BR/><BR/>I spoke to Alice of wonderlandblog, and she says this:<BR/><BR/>"She's on the nose with this: Blizz and MSoft don't mind as long as it's not for commercial gain (and education usually isn't). EA is fine with Sims (AFAIK, IANAL) in the same vein, and anything made with The Movies (cf French protest kid). Everyone else, who the hell knows! Still she should be able to find enough with that lot; WoW makes up the majority of machinima as is, with Half Life probably in second place. Valve are very progressive actually, I think HL movies might have some decent copyright allowances.<BR/><BR/>In the US, fair use has to be defended, it's not an absolute right (unfortunately) so while putting together these things for educational purposes would stand up in court, it's not a guaranteed win (altho, jeez, 99.99% - assuming you can *pay* for the court case, which is where it usually falls by the wayside)."kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08667956356673687251noreply@blogger.com
