Think of an example in which you violate all copyright
rules

Everyone has access to those songs.
The authors don’t sell anything anymore.
They accuse you.
The rest of your life you need to peel potatoes…

rules
You hear a song on the radio of a local unknown
artist (who wants to be famous).
You copy the sons, you publish the song under name.
The song becomes a hit.
Everyone knows you… without knowing you stole
the lyrics.

8. Workshop with students

copyright?
• Workshops
• Organising an afternoon like this 
• Campaigning, tv commercials etc so that young
people become more aware
• Informing young people about copyright so that
they know stealing is no good
• Indicate that it is illegal (no one knows) and
what penalties you can get
• More projects like this

9. Propositions
“I am ready to pay for legal
downloadable movies, even if I can
download them for free.”
“Digitizing books is only interesting
if you can edit all text.”
“Using music in your movie is OK if
you don’t earn money with it.”
