WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.990 - [Instructor] Have you ever wondered 00:00:00.990 --> 00:00:04.680 how to download and share digital content legally? 00:00:04.680 --> 00:00:05.820 How do you let people know 00:00:05.820 --> 00:00:08.940 that you want them to reuse your own work? 00:00:08.940 --> 00:00:11.850 Creative Commons licenses can help you do both. 00:00:11.850 --> 00:00:13.710 We'll show you how. 00:00:13.710 --> 00:00:16.830 Our world's exploded with digital opportunities. 00:00:16.830 --> 00:00:19.770 Now we can communicate, share, and work together 00:00:19.770 --> 00:00:22.170 using the exceptional distribution network 00:00:22.170 --> 00:00:24.180 that is the internet. 00:00:24.180 --> 00:00:26.460 Information and content can fly between us 00:00:26.460 --> 00:00:28.470 in exciting new ways. 00:00:28.470 --> 00:00:31.590 But it's important to know that when something is created, 00:00:31.590 --> 00:00:34.500 say a photo or document or a music track, 00:00:34.500 --> 00:00:37.770 it's automatically protected by copyright. 00:00:37.770 --> 00:00:40.140 Copyright enables people to say who can share 00:00:40.140 --> 00:00:42.510 and reuse their creations. 00:00:42.510 --> 00:00:44.520 You must always obtain someone's permission 00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:46.620 before sharing or reusing their work, 00:00:46.620 --> 00:00:49.140 even when it's posted online. 00:00:49.140 --> 00:00:52.380 But what if a creator wants everyone to use their work 00:00:52.380 --> 00:00:55.413 without the hassle of granting permission over and over? 00:00:56.730 --> 00:00:59.400 This is where Creative Commons can help. 00:00:59.400 --> 00:01:01.830 Creative Commons provides licensing tools 00:01:01.830 --> 00:01:03.630 that are free to use. 00:01:03.630 --> 00:01:05.670 You can apply a license to your work, 00:01:05.670 --> 00:01:07.350 which refines your copyright 00:01:07.350 --> 00:01:09.573 and streamlines how you give permission. 00:01:10.590 --> 00:01:14.160 Zach here downloads a photo called "CC Kiwi" 00:01:14.160 --> 00:01:16.680 that he wants to use in his science project. 00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:20.370 He can do this without asking Kiri, the photographer, first 00:01:20.370 --> 00:01:22.620 because she's already given permission 00:01:22.620 --> 00:01:25.050 with a Creative Commons license. 00:01:25.050 --> 00:01:27.180 Kiri's license is legally robust, 00:01:27.180 --> 00:01:29.730 but easy for Zach to understand. 00:01:29.730 --> 00:01:32.070 She's told the world, including Zach, 00:01:32.070 --> 00:01:35.310 that they can use "CC Kiwi" as long as they acknowledge her 00:01:35.310 --> 00:01:36.813 as the original photographer. 00:01:37.800 --> 00:01:40.230 There are more rules Kiri could have included. 00:01:40.230 --> 00:01:43.740 Creative Commons licenses are made up of license elements, 00:01:43.740 --> 00:01:45.480 you can think of them as rules, 00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:48.180 and each have their own special symbol. 00:01:48.180 --> 00:01:50.280 This is attribution. 00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:52.320 It means that Zach must acknowledge Kiri 00:01:52.320 --> 00:01:55.353 when he publishes his science project containing her photo. 00:01:57.420 --> 00:01:59.070 This is non-commercial. 00:01:59.070 --> 00:02:01.110 It means no one else but Kiri 00:02:01.110 --> 00:02:04.500 is permitted to make money from "CC Kiwi." 00:02:04.500 --> 00:02:06.660 Tim wants to print the photo onto T-shirts 00:02:06.660 --> 00:02:08.340 and distribute them to friends. 00:02:08.340 --> 00:02:11.073 He can do this, but he must not sell them. 00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:14.490 This is no derivatives 00:02:14.490 --> 00:02:16.560 and it means that Kiri hasn't given permission 00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:18.480 to change her photo. 00:02:18.480 --> 00:02:21.570 Kate can use "CC Kiwi" on her design blog, 00:02:21.570 --> 00:02:24.240 but will need to ask Kiri before retouching 00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:25.683 or mixing up the image. 00:02:28.140 --> 00:02:29.970 And this is share-alike. 00:02:29.970 --> 00:02:33.000 It means new creations that use "CC Kiwi" 00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:35.550 need to carry the same license. 00:02:35.550 --> 00:02:38.280 Jack incorporates his own remix of "CC Kiwi" 00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:40.050 in his video installation, 00:02:40.050 --> 00:02:41.610 but he must share the work 00:02:41.610 --> 00:02:43.950 under the same terms that Kiri has. 00:02:43.950 --> 00:02:47.280 Each Creative Commons license gives permission to share 00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:49.500 and includes the attribution rule. 00:02:49.500 --> 00:02:52.680 So people who find your Creative Commons licensed work 00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:54.630 are automatically allowed to share it 00:02:54.630 --> 00:02:57.930 but are required to acknowledge you if they do. 00:02:57.930 --> 00:03:00.180 The other three license elements are optional 00:03:00.180 --> 00:03:02.913 and you can choose which ones to add, if any. 00:03:04.140 --> 00:03:05.670 Here are the six combinations 00:03:05.670 --> 00:03:08.400 that make up Creative Commons licenses. 00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:11.880 The difference between them is how many rules apply 00:03:11.880 --> 00:03:13.953 when someone wishes to use your work. 00:03:14.820 --> 00:03:18.480 The attribution license allows reusers the most freedom, 00:03:18.480 --> 00:03:21.960 and the attribution, non-commercial, no derivatives license 00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:23.313 allows the least freedom. 00:03:24.300 --> 00:03:25.740 The attribution license 00:03:25.740 --> 00:03:28.560 and the attribution share-alike licenses 00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:29.850 are sometimes referred to 00:03:29.850 --> 00:03:33.930 as Free Cultural Works approved licenses. 00:03:33.930 --> 00:03:37.623 These three licenses restrict commercial use of a work, 00:03:38.550 --> 00:03:41.550 and these two licenses do not give permission 00:03:41.550 --> 00:03:43.203 for adapting or remixing. 00:03:44.190 --> 00:03:46.860 These two licenses require new works 00:03:46.860 --> 00:03:49.353 to be licensed under the same terms. 00:03:50.190 --> 00:03:52.980 To choose and apply one of these licenses 00:03:52.980 --> 00:03:55.230 and to view their terms in more detail, 00:03:55.230 --> 00:04:00.120 visit us at creativecommons.org.nz. 00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:02.010 Or you can answer some questions 00:04:02.010 --> 00:04:05.400 to help you decide which license best suits your needs 00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:09.330 at creativecommons.org/choose. 00:04:09.330 --> 00:04:10.620 There are some good ways to find 00:04:10.620 --> 00:04:14.010 other people's Creative Commons licensed work online. 00:04:14.010 --> 00:04:15.510 You can use a search filter 00:04:15.510 --> 00:04:18.240 by going to the Creative Commons website. 00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:21.480 Or why not try the Jamendo website for music, 00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:22.890 Flickr for images, 00:04:22.890 --> 00:04:25.773 or DigitalNZ for New Zealand content? 00:04:26.970 --> 00:04:28.650 Using Creative Commons licenses 00:04:28.650 --> 00:04:31.590 could help your creations reach more people. 00:04:31.590 --> 00:04:33.870 Maybe you want to connect with others across the globe 00:04:33.870 --> 00:04:36.150 and take turns at improving a rapport. 00:04:36.150 --> 00:04:37.920 Or maybe you just want to have fun 00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:40.530 remixing someone else's work. 00:04:40.530 --> 00:04:43.050 Whatever reason you have to share your work, 00:04:43.050 --> 00:04:45.960 you'll find there are scientists, educators, companies, 00:04:45.960 --> 00:04:49.710 and public agencies who are using Creative Commons. 00:04:49.710 --> 00:04:51.210 By opening up permission, 00:04:51.210 --> 00:04:53.760 just imagine how much we can achieve. 00:04:53.760 --> 00:04:56.070 Collaborating on what we hold in common, 00:04:56.070 --> 00:04:58.260 being open about big decisions, 00:04:58.260 --> 00:05:01.590 and finding solutions in the spaces between us. 00:05:01.590 --> 00:05:04.890 Let's work together, confidently and legally. 00:05:04.890 --> 00:05:07.623 It's good to share with Creative Commons.
