Never Read Your Slides
Under no circumstances should you ever read your slides word for word from the presentation screen. Your audience will figure out that you are reading the slides. They can read faster than you can talk. This will create a disconnect between you
Never Read Your Slides
and your audience.

Fair Use
Fair Use
a defense, not a right
If “Fair Use” is called into question, they will look at 4 things
If “Fair Use” is called into question, they will look at 4 things
the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of
a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes
the nature of the copyrighted work
the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole
the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the
copyrighted work
Used to have to file for copyright
(extra work on the part of the owner)
Today, all you have to do is “fix” your work
(write it down, record it, save it to a hard drive, CD, DVD or other media)
