Copyright and Modern Internet Culture

As you may have guessed from the post title, this is indeed a paper that I wrote for school.  However, I put a lot of time and effort into this paper and I feel it turned out well.  It was in APA style originally, and this is how it transfers to an internet page.  Take a look if you're interested, it's pretty heavy stuff, but it's also a very important topic for us creative types on the internet.  Here's the link to the pdf of the paper: Copyright and Modern Internet Culture.

The Hobbit VLog Review

A week after I see The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey I talk about it on camera! I talk a little bit about the movie, but mostly about the actors that do and don't appear in the movie (I mean you Benedict Cumberbatch).

Django Unchained Review

I talk about the new western action flick Django Unchained, directed by Quentin Tarantino, starring Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz, and Leonardo DiCaprio.

Fanart Law

I found this video to be incredibly informative and useful when shaping my understanding of copyright law and I think everyone should check it out. It's great because it's a law professor giving a speech about copyright law in a way that's very understandable. I'm actually using it as a reference for paper I'm working on.

Silent Hill: Revelations Review

For my first review in a long time I take a look at the new Silent Hill movie. Did I like it? Did it make sense? Did Kit Harrington take his shirt off? All these questions and more are answered in this review.



Note: I shot and uploaded this video weeks ago, but I just realized I hadn't posted it here yet. Whoops.

Also, poor quality video, not quite sure why, but I will recode this one with a better program. When I have time ...
