1. A copyright is a form of protection  to authors of "original works of authorship." This includes literary, dramatic, musical, artistic and certain other creative works.
   Copyright is a law, which allows artists to have full rights of their own work and allows only the artist to have rights of how their work is used and distributed, also the artist has the right to be identified as the creator of the piece of work at all times, which stops other people taking credit for the artists work as their own piece of work which is illegal. It is illegal without the consent of the artist to copy the work, perform or broadcast the work to the public and adapt the artist work.
   

   In our media project we had to create a video to a song of our choice. We choice the song blame by John Newman and Calvin Harris. Before we could create the video for this song we had to email the record label of the artists to make sure we had permission to use there song. We found Calvin Harris' record label called Fly Records, and emailed them for permission so that we did not breach copyright laws by uploading on YouTube without there clearance.
   
   Here is the email we sent.
   
   We are still waiting on a response from the record label, but understand record labels are extremely busy, so my group and I are continuing to plan and create our music video for Calvin Harris Blame.
