  DESCRIPTION:

  You want to sample something in a video or song, borrow an image
  for an art collage, or use a vintage film clip in your act -- and
  you wonder if the estate of Groucho Marx can sue you.

  Come find our what's "fair game" and what's off-limits. When can
  you use work produced by other people and other organizations?
  How do you stay out of trouble? What are the limits and
  possibilities?

  FEATURING:

  -- George Rush (George M. Rush Law Offices; adviser, Film Arts
  Foundation): Entertainment lawyer, film and video specialist

  -- Trevor Stordahl (Attorney at the Pranger Law Group)

  -- Jennifer Yip (Creative Commons): Using flexible licenses and
  accessing open work in the Internet era.

  -- Moderated by professional coach/social architect Michael Vav
