The next piece of assessment for this course is a 1000 word essay to be posted in this blog. There were a few topics to choose from – 6 to be exact- but it wasn't hard for me to pick one. For me question 2 was the most interesting topic:
Explain what Creative Commons is and, using examples, show how it is different to other forms of copyright.
I really like the whole idea of Creative Commons and Open source software, I really enjoyed writing my blog post on it – hopefully by picking this topic I can minimise the pain involved in these 1000 words.
As I have already researched and written about the history and beginnings of Creative Commons, I would like to learn more about the positive impacts CC has had on creative industries. I'm not sure if it's possible at this stage yet, but it would be very interesting to do a specific case study on how CC licences had changed the way an individual, such as a filmmaker, works.
