Columbia College Chicago Film and Video: Student Understanding

Film & Video Department
Columbia College Chicago

I have carefully read through the Syllabus and Class Schedule for this class and understand what will be expected of me throughout the semester. I understand that copyright laws protect the video and film media used in this class. Unless I am credited as a member of the crew for an original creative work; and unless I have written permission from the producer, I will refrain from any public or private distribution of the footage, images or audio recordings. I understand that any superimposed copyright on media may not be “letter boxed” or covered over in any way. I will not upload the aforementioned media to Internet sites, whether public or private, such as YouTube, MySpace, or the Columbia College Chicago Portfolio Center Web Publish System, and I will not exhibit any of the footage or edited exercises in any public venue, at any film festival or include the footage in any compilation or “demo reel” of my work. I also understand that my written papers will be submitted and retained in the database of TurnItIn.com, an Internet company used to detect and prevent plagiarism.
