Copyright And Choreography: The Negative Costs Of The Current Framework For Licensing Choreography And A Proposal For An Alternative Licensing Model, Matt Kovac 2014 UC Law SF

Copyright And Choreography: The Negative Costs Of The Current Framework For Licensing Choreography And A Proposal For An Alternative Licensing Model, Matt Kovac

UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal

Although approaches rooted in copyright law are available, choreographers tend to rely instead on contract law in order to control distribution of their work; choreographers license their ballets to dance companies via contracts which are typically negotiated on an ad hoc basis. This relatively conservative approach allows choreographers to maintain tight artistic control over subsequent reproductions of their ballets, but it comes at a cost to both the dance community and the general public. This conservative approach to distribution means that a choreographic work may be performed infrequently or not at all, and it also forecloses the possibility for transformative …

Racial Upside: Deconstructing The "Merits" Of Jeremy Lin's Nba Contract, Stewart Chang 2014 University of Nevada, Las Vegas -- William S. Boyd School of Law

Racial Upside: Deconstructing The "Merits" Of Jeremy Lin's Nba Contract, Stewart Chang

Scholarly Works

In this Article, Professor Stewart Chang disputes the common misperception that sports are a colorblind meritocracy that should serve as a model for the rest of society. The capacity of players to break into and succeed in professional sports is believed to be based purely on merit, with no consideration of race. Controversies that surfaced around the rise of professional basketball player Jeremy Lin, an Asian American not expected to succeed in a sport dominated by blacks and whites, challenged this popularly-held notion. He argues, not in a derisive way, that Lin's ability to secure a lucrative $28.8 million contract, …

Title Ix Feminism, Social Justice, And Ncaa Reform, Erin E. Buzuvis 2014 Western New England University School of Law

Title Ix Feminism, Social Justice, And Ncaa Reform, Erin E. Buzuvis

Faculty Scholarship

This Article discusses social justice feminism as it applies to gender discrimination in collegiate and scholastic athletics in the context of Title IX requirements. Title IX activists today are primarily concerned with securing equal resources and opportunities for women in a college athletic environment. Today, that environment is becoming increasingly commercialized; this presents a Title IX problem because it creates an incentive to invest more athletic department resources into certain men’s athletic programs instead of distributing them equitably to women’s (and other men’s) programs. In addition, the NCAA is presently considering or has recently undertaken deregulation initiatives in a variety …


Blurred Lines - Where Copyright Ends And Cultural Appropriation Begins - The Case Of Robin Thicke Versus Bridgeport Music And The Estate Of Marvin Gaye, Toni Lester 2014 UC Law SF

Blurred Lines - Where Copyright Ends And Cultural Appropriation Begins - The Case Of Robin Thicke Versus Bridgeport Music And The Estate Of Marvin Gaye, Toni Lester

UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal

Were Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams perpetuating perceptions of misappropriation when they filed their declaratory judgment claim against the estate of Marvin Gaye? Or were they legitimately contributing to the evolving genre of R&B and soul music originated by black greats like Gaye and others? This article will answer these questions by first exploring the extent to which the song "Blurred Lines" constitutes illegal copyright infringement of "Gotta Give It Up" under the U.S. Copyright Act and traditional judicial interpretations thereof. It will then make some predictions about the outcome of the declaratory judgment claim currently under consideration in California.
