This class was very interesting to me. I really enjoyed the documentary we watched. I've heard my friends talk about "Girl Talk" before, but I never really listened to him till this film. I've always enjoyed remixes of songs new and old, and found it interesting what legal issues went into it.
I also remember hearing about the man who would draw Mickey Mouse, and never really thought that it was that bad. I feel that big corporations are more into it for the money then people think. Of course there are the real people out there that believe that what people make is truly good.
I don't mean to keep going back to the kid on Youtube making the videos, but he's a great example.
At first he was making the remixes of the classic Disney movies for fun. But once Disney saw, they made it that all the music he made was only sold as "free" and he could not get paid. Soon after, he was picked up from Disney and Pixar and also works for many other companies.
This just shows what a little experimentation can do!
