Viewing Guide: everything is a remix

A good video series should speak for itself, and I think this is a good video series, so I won't say anything about it. Instead, I'll give you the following list of THINGS TO NOTE as you watch and think about this video. Remember, you're here to learn, and if you want to learn anything, you need to pay attention. There's lots to learn from here, but you might start with these:
  1. Editing. You just finished an editing project, so pay attention to the way the shots align to tell the story. Consider timing, shot length, sound & music, and any effects or animation you notice. What choices help or hinder the storytelling? 
  2. Structure & Organization. How does the content of each episode build on the one before it? Is the sequence and duration of episodes okay? Are parts of the argument easier to understand than others? 
  3. Voiceover & Script. It's not fancy, and it has character, but check the nuance of the idea as he develops and elaborates it. The delivery, also, is worth paying attention to.
  4. Fair use. How did he get away with using so much copyright-protected footage? Thanks, fair use!
Here's what the Stanford University Library has to say about fair use: 
​Fair use is a copyright principle based on the belief that the public is entitled to freely use portions of copyrighted materials for purposes of commentary and criticism. For example, if you wish to criticize a novelist, you should have the freedom to quote a portion of the novelist’s work without asking permission. Absent this freedom, copyright owners could stifle any negative comments about their work.
Unfortunately, if the copyright owner disagrees with your fair use interpretation, the dispute may have to be resolved by a lawsuit or arbitration. If it’s not a fair use, then you are infringing upon the rights of the copyright owner and may be liable for damages.
 In a court of law, a judge would likely consider the following four factors when deciding on a copyright case: ​
  • the purpose and character of your use
  • the nature of the copyrighted work
  • the amount and substantiality of the portion taken, and
  • the effect of the use upon the potential market

 If you want more of this sort of thing, I recommend the following video
