I added the note under the video saying some videos posted by YouTube staff are misleading and attorney Ian Corzine criticized them in his videos for the wrong information.
i understand using sheet music is not fair use. I’ll consult with an IP attorney on using reduced thumbnail images...
you mentioned 4 points on how YouTube works in your previous post. When I agreed with your points saying “Exactly”, you are disagreeing saying “No”.
Are you saying teaching piano notes (like I’m doing currently without sheet music and lyrics) is not fair use? Have you checked previous links on...
yes, we can download videos from YouTube. Just wanted to clarify, a sheet music is typically a pdf. When you download a video that has scrolling sheet music, you won’t get a pdf. You will get the exact same video that you watched on YouTube and there is no difference between the two.
(I...
I was referring to the earlier link posted by Quincy - US Copyright Office’s summary of Kelly v. Arriba Soft Corp., a case that addressed fair use and thumbnail images:
https://www.copyright.gov/fair-use/summaries/kelly-arriba-9thcir2003.pdf
Video thumbnails are like 3 inches. I meant to...
I agree with the (entire) sheet music part using it for teaching.
I was wondering if I’m showing only parts of sheet music for the notes being played (like excerpts) and it is not downloadable. Also if I’m showing the lyrics only for the notes being played (like excerpts) and it is not...
She is not a lawyer but a long time musician with 2M followers and knows stuff and she admits it too. It is the best video I found in years of searching on copyrights. There is nothing like it and nothing misleading in it.
My work is transformative as I use 100% of my own sounds and video without vocals and none of the audio or video is used from the original audio/video.
YouTube doesn’t do it right, Even if we use 30 seconds of a 300 second song in our 10 minute video, they give full credit of our video to the original author and let them monetize it 100% instead of giving them just 10% of the revenue - even though YouTube has ALL the data of how much of the...
you are talking about buying sheet music which is not free. You bought a licensed copy of the sheet music.
Profit has nothing to do with fair use if it is transformative.
Teaching is fair use.
Transforming others’ work is covered under fair use.

Why would I promote someone...
Yes, thanks -

Fair use will not permit you to merely copy another’s work and profit from it, but when your use contributes to society by continuing the public discourse or creating a new work in the process, fair use may protect you.

Exactly.
YouTube allows to dispute any copyright claims when appropriate and there is a counter notification and court proceedings process (that the copyright holder needs to complete within 10 days and furnish proof). My videos are not cover songs, they are pure tutorials, I’m teaching music...
correct - I’m trying to teach what people want to learn - not the music from 1800 that is taught in music academies as part of classical music and theory that nobody wants to learn. The academies don’t teach the modern Hollywood music.
There are musicians/singers who produce music. There are...

I offer Piano song tutorials on YouTube showing keyboard notes under Fair Use.
Is it Fair Use to display song Lyrics and Sheet Music inside my tutorial videos correspondingly for the notes being played? I intend to show 1-3 lines of lyrics and horizontally...
I'm not going to use the original version or any karaoke version created by others in my videos.
If I create a popular song from scratch using my own instruments showing how to play it, could that result in IP infringement?
Or, if I create brief videos of only the melody track using an...
My plan is to create 2-3 video tutorials a day.
In that case, if I just create tutorials of popular songs using entirely my own music and instruments (without using any others' music) showing keyboard notes on how to play them, is that considered fair use? What I mean to say is my tutorials...
What is the name of your state? USA
I have a YouTube channel and I create master class music tutorials showing keyboard notes on how to play the melody, chords, etc. in a song. The karaoke tracks I intend to use in my projects are not derived from the original versions but reproduced by various...
