A copyright notice is designed to tell you that a work is protected by copyright, who is the holder of those rights and when that protection began.
In the United States, a properly written copyright notice usually consists of three elements::
1. the © symbol (in some cases (c) is substituted), the word "Copyright" or abbreviation "Copr.";
2. the first year of publication; and
3. the owner of the copyright, either by name, abbreviation, or other designation.
To cite a copyright in academic writing, include the copyright symbol (), the year of publication, and the name of the copyright holder. For example: 2021 John Doe.
In writing.
Use the latest copyright date.
Just ask. Contact the copyright holder in writing; many rightsholders have online forms to simplify the process.
If your use is not covered by an exemption in the law, get permission in writing from the copyright holder.
Contact the copyright holder in writing to request permission; be specific about your proposed usage.
When you purchase a painting, you own the physical artwork but not necessarily the copyright. The artist typically retains the copyright unless they transfer it to you in writing.
Copyright law cannot protect ideas, only the expressionof them in writing, sound, art, etc.
If your use would not be considered fair, ask the copyright holder for permission, in writing, and be specific.
Contact the production company in writing for a license.
Transfer of intellectual property must be done in writing. See the "transfer of copyright" section of the pdf linked to below for instructions.
Copyright and plagiarism are alike because they both protect an author's work. Copyright protects all sorts of writing and creative content while plagiarism is a way you can violate that.
