Google suit), people are wondering what they can do to help prevent getting in trouble themselves. Recently, the Center for Social Media (part of the School of Communication at American University) has concluded a long, in-depth project to establish a set of “Best Practices in Fair Use for Online Video“, and other valuable information to help guide video creators in ways to prevent getting themselves in trouble.

I would venture to say even slight edits will not alter the original video to supposed non-copyrighted version.

It is really important to follows rules always (not only in making videos) so that we wouldn’t be sorry.
