Do you have to use a copyright symbol?

It depends on when the work was created. For works created before 1989, it may be required; the courts have not ruled as to whether a copyright notice is required on works first created before the U.S. became part of the Berne Union. For works created after 1988 the answer is simple. No. A copyright symbol has not been necessary in the US since 1989. There are advantages to putting the copyright symbol or copyright notice on a work even if not required, including eliminating the "innocent infringer" defense.

How things become copyrighted?

Copyright is automatically granted when an original work is created and fixed in a tangible medium of expression, such as writing, recording, or digital format. The creator does not need to register the work for copyright protection, although registration can provide legal advantages. Copyright protects the expression of ideas, not the ideas themselves, and typically lasts for the creator's lifetime plus 70 years. To maintain copyright, the creator must ensure the work is not used without permission and may need to take legal action against infringement.
