Obvious Dorothy

After listening to "Somewhere over the Rainbow" for the 5 billionth time, I realized that Dorothy doesn't really say much in this song...

Fair Use
Fair Use exists so that people can create from old culture, while at the same time the original owners of the content as well as the new creators are protected.  Fair use says that a number of altering projects are okay, such as mash-ups, remakes, cultural references, conversation starters, comentary, example/illustration, etc.  To be sure that you're using Fair Use correctly, one thing that stood out to me was the proportionality.  Be sure to only use what is proportional for your task.

In our videos, we are taking apart and recombining our original videos to create something with new meaning.  This puts our videos under Fair Use.

Video
I used the "Somewhere over the Rainbow" video to make my shorter video clip.  In my version, Dorothy is extraordinarily obvious.


Thats right Dorothy, the sky is high.  Birds do fly high. Good job, sweetie.
