Inspiration VS Appropriation
Inspiration -
something that influences, propels, or inspires you to create something new.
Appropriation -
to use someone else’s creative work to make something new, often without their permission.
There is a debate in the music
industry today about sampling and remixing. Some people think it is fair use,
while others believe it violates copyright law. People in the music industry
have various perspectives on this issue.
Inspiration is when you...
- Write a story in a style that resembles another story you've read, but is something different (Remember all the vampire books that came out after Twilight Series!!)
Appropriation is when you..
- Use the melody or the base of a song you like to create another song.
For example:
It's OKAY to be inspired by someone else's creative work to create something of your own but when you copy and paste, or use an entire song as the backdrop for something you created...you are violating copyright law.

I would want my work to be use ONLY with my explicit permission because maybe i can inspire someone, somewhere but I don't want them to copy my work.
ReplyDeleteI would rather my work be used only with my permission because it's mine and I would not want my work to be used without credits to me and without my knowledge unless authorized by fair use.
ReplyDeleteI want my work to be used by my permission and with credits been giving to me. It would not be fair for someone to gain from it and it was my idea.
ReplyDeletei would mind if my creative works was used by someone else and i was not credited or they didn't ask for my permission
