Copyright Letter

Within lesson we established the importance and restrictions regarding copyright. We learnt about how the use of Copyright enables the creator of a piece of work (e.g artists and musicians) to decide how, or if it can be used by others parties with profitable intentions. Copyright laws and contracts  provide protection to the material created by the owner/s and ensures the  the creator knows when their work is being used or licensed for use by others (e.g Music Channels) Infringing Copyright laws could lead to serious consequences such as fines or even imprisonment as it is against a contracted law if the owners sue the people who illegally used their work.

It was essential that my group and I wrote to the record company that signed Kesha. We wanted to assure them that we are A level students, who will be using 'Crazy kids' with no intentions to gain profit from recording a music video for the song. My group member Ishpreet Sundal wrote a letter to the founder of Kemosabe records. Ishpreet wrote in regards to gaining permission to use Kesha's song 'Crazy kids', for our group music video.
