• Copyright is a federal law which provides protection for any original work that you create.

• It also allows for protection of someone else’s work so that you can’t use it without their permission.

•What is Copyright?

• For example, if you write a song, a poem, draw a picture or anything like that, the U.S. copyright law protects you. This means that no one else can take it and say that it is theirs.

• It also means, that the same is true for someone else. If you hear your friend singing a tune and then you go and write a song and make thousands of dollars from it, based on the song your friend was singing, you are in violation of the copyright law. Why? Because, the song belonged to your friend and not you.

• I am confused what does all of this mean?

• Then you can sign a release and allow a person to use your work. Only the owner of a product can allow someone one to use it and the owner can determine under what circumstances the work may be used.

• You should always credit the work of others when you use something that is not originally yours.

But what if I want someone else to use something that I wrote?
